MEOC Receives Highest Honor
Mountain
Empire Older Citizens, Inc. announces that its
Teenagers/ Alzheimer’s Caregivers/Technology Project has been
recognized by the National Association of Area Agencies on
Aging (n4a) with an Aging Innovations Award, the
highest program honor presented by n4a.
The 2007 n4a Aging Innovations Awards,
sponsored by Critical Signal Technologies (CST),
recognize 12 cutting-edge and successful programs that will
serve as models for other agencies seeking innovative
approaches to care for the older population within their
communities. The need for successful, cost-effective aging
programs is especially important in light of the wave of
aging baby boomers expected to require services in the years
ahead. For the first time, the 60+ population has exceeded
50 million people; this trend of increased numbers of older
Americans is projected to continue over the next decades,
with older adults 85+ the fastest growing population.
