"Aging Together in New York"

There are 4.6 million New Yorkers over the age of 60, ranking New York as the fourth largest population of older adults in the nation. As the demographic shifts, so does the definition of "aging". Son this 60th anniversary of Older Americans Month, we're bringing the spunk with New Yorkers who are living that theme to the fullest.
