Advocating for Older Adults & Aging Services
Through our relationships with lawmakers and the press, LeadingAge fights to remove barriers to care and improve funding for the sector. We help policymakers decipher complex issues in aging—on Capitol Hill and at the state and local level—to build a stronger future for aging services providers and the people you serve.

LeadingAge maintains relationships across Washington, DC, to ensure that policymakers understand how to best craft and support legislation and regulation to support aging services, older adults, and families across the country.
