A wonderful example of #OlderAmericansMonth in action🫶

Charlton Senior Center partnered with Bay Path Regional Vocational Technical High School’s Cosmetology Program. The students got to practice, and the residents got pampered! We love seeing innovative partnerships like this

Medicare won’t call you unless you contact Medicare first.
Phone scammers try to pose as Medicare to steal your Medicare Number, birthdate, or Social Security Number. If you’re not sure about a caller, hang up and report it to 1-800-MEDICARE. https://t.co/h92HXu5rLw

[AmeriCorps @AmeriCorps]

May is Older Americans Month—and we’re making sure older adults have everything they need to keep sharing their energy and experience with their communities.

Last year, I signed an Executive Order to make age-friendly policies a priority across state government. We’re working to make Massachusetts a place where people of all ages can live well — and to rethink what aging here looks like.
