Flip the Script on Aging
In this session, we welcome you to celebrate national Older Americans Month by kicking-off a powerful new approach to help each of us improve how our state perceives, talks about, and approaches aging.

We know that the everyday language we use makes a difference. Check out and share these #agefriendlymn videos as a creative way to start a conversation with people in your personal or professional worlds. Together, we can role model better language choices in Minnesota. While these may seem like small examples, we know that big societal change grows from the small, everyday moments that add up over time.
