The Elder Economic Security program is an initiative that seeks to build economic security for elders through a multi-pronged approach that includes organizing, advocacy and research.
The Elder Economic Security Team enables policy makers, and others to develop policies and programs to help elders make ends meet. A key component of the initiative is the Elder Economic Security Standard Index (Elder Index). The Elder Index is a geographically-based measure of income needed for elders to live modestly.
May 1 is the official “blog day” for elder economic security. Sponsored by Wider Opportunities for Women (WOW), hundreds of bloggers from across the country will share their ideas and insights about what our country can do to become a more affordable place to grow old.
