Let's Rethink Aging.

Abstract

Ageism and ageist attitudes and behaviors have a negative impact on the well-being of older adults in Delaware, the fifth oldest state in the country. An integrated, cross-sector public health agenda that addresses both the achievements and challenges of growing older is essential to ensure that Delawareans can age with the highest quality of life possible. Rethinking how we age and valuing longevity can make Delaware, the First State, First in Aging.
