October is a beautiful time to explore our state – and the 2025 Age Well Across Connecticut list has some great suggestions! The Connecticut Age Well Collaborative, part of CCC, assembles this community-nominated list each year, celebrating places and programs that contribute to aging well. Check out the list at https://ctagewellcollaborative.org/acrossct/

Spotted at the Farmington Canal Trail — an Age Well Across CT sign! The trail is truly a local gem — a free, accessible place to walk, run, ride, or roll for communities across Connecticut. In the words of their nominator: "This trail has been a miracle for me and my children. One of my kids is a wheelchair user and having so many access points for walking along the Farmington Canal or in the beautiful woods of Connecticut has been such a gift!"

Ageism Awareness Day reminds us that every stage of life has value. Today and everyday, let's celebrate older adults for their wisdom, resilience, and the experiences that shape our communities. Let’s challenge stereotypes, speak up for respect, and ensure that aging is seen as the powerful journey it truly is. 💛

Today is Ageism Awareness Day, a time to reflect on how ageism shapes our communities and what we can do to change it.

In 2022, 14.5 million U.S. adults age 60+ were racial and ethnic minorities, a number expected to rise to 26.6 million by 2040. Our nation is growing older and more diverse than ever; so let’s make sure it’s also growing more inclusive.

Everyone is aging, and that’s something to celebrate. Join the movement: asaging.org/ageism-awareness-day

By increasing our , we can create a more equitable world where everyone is able make more informed decisions about their health!
