Today is #AgeismAwarenessDay and we want to show you what aging can look like!As a Village, aging means staying engaged, developing new hobbies, staying active, engaging in advocacy, making new friends, and so much more. It means navigating challenges that may come up as we age, it means having support, it means not having to do this alone.When we emphasize ageist messaging like, "older people are all stuck in their ways", "you are most attractive or capable when you're young", "when you turn 70 you're going to be stuck in a nursing home for the rest of your life" we are harming ourselves, our friends, and our family. In reality, aging is a spectrum of experiences, a range of abilities, and living situations. The more we fight ageism, the better we all are!How do you fight ageism in your life? Let us know in the comments.#TalkAboutAgeism #ageismawarenessday #capitolhillvillage #OlderAdults #washingtondc

That's not a small thing.The good news is that ageism is something we can control.
