Fighting for the Older Americans Act

The Older Americans Act (OAA) is critical to support Americans living with aging-related diseases, like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s.

At this week’s Aging Committee hearing, Kirsten heard from witnesses about the importance of OAA-funded programs like nutrition assistance, home care, transportation assistance, and community engagement in helping millions of Americans live with dignity and independence.

She called for the reauthorization of the OAA to continue these vital support programs.
