I’m writing with exciting news!

Today, the National Council on Aging (NCOA) updated its brand and launched an all-new website. You’ve been a valuable partner to us, and we wanted to tell you personally. Why now? Our goal is simple—to increase our impact. We’ve been improving the lives of millions of older adults since we were founded in 1950.

But we’ve never felt the sense of urgency that we feel today. More Americans are living longer, but far too many are being left behind without the resources to age with dignity. The truth is, all of us age, but we don’t age equally. Too often, whether you enjoy basic health and financial security has to do with your gender, color, sexuality, income, or zip code.

We’re changing that.

We believe it’s time to renew our commitment to delivering the resources, tools, and best practices our nation needs to ensure that every person can age with health and financial security. We hope you’re as excited as we are about creating a more just and caring society for each of us as we age. We encourage you to learn more by visiting our all-new website at www.ncoa.org and following us on social media @NCOAging.

I also wanted to highlight a few places where you’ll find all the resources you come to know and trust from NCOA:

New Center for Benefits Access landing page: www.ncoa.org/professionals/benefits/center-for-benefits-access

Within the Center’s pages you’ll find the MIPPA Resource Center: www.ncoa.org/professionals/benefits/center-for-benefits-access/mippa-resource-center, which includes links to BECs, webinars, tools & training resources, promising practices, and more.
You’ll also see our Walmart Foundation-funded Senior SNAP Enrollment Initiative: www.ncoa.org/professionals/benefits/center-for-benefits-access/senior-snap-enrollment-initiative, where you can learn more about SNAP, our grantees, and get tailorable outreach materials.

Our Promising Practices Clearinghouse is now at www.ncoa.org/professionals/benefits/center-for-benefits-access/mippa-resource-center/promising-practices
Tools & Training is where we keep our benefits eligibility charts, visualization tools, tip sheets, issue briefs, and more: www.ncoa.org/professionals/benefits/center-for-benefits-access/mippa-resource-center/tools-training

If you don’t immediately find what you’re looking for, know that the site search function has been greatly improved and should help you find it!

Thank you for being such a fantastic partner. We can’t wait to continue this journey with you!
