October 7th is Ageism Awareness Day, reminding us of the pervasive issue of ageism and its detrimental impact on society. The American Society on Ageing has excellent resources if you would like more information or want to get involved.

Ageism is not just a harmless stereotype or societal bias; it has profound consequences for individuals’ well-being, health, and financial security. This day serves as a call to action to address the various forms of ageism and promote a more inclusive, equitable society.
