LLCityof Louisville <br />OLDER AMERICANS MONTH PROCLAMATION <br />MAY 2024 <br />Whereas, May is Older Americans Month, a time to recognize and honor Louisville older adults <br />and their immense influence on every facet of American society; and <br />Whereas, through their wealth of life experience and wisdom, older adults guide out younger <br />generations and carry forward abundant cultural and historical knowledge; and <br />Whereas, older Americans improve our communities through intergenerational <br />relationships, community service, civic engagement, and many other activities; and <br />Whereas, communities benefit when people of all ages, abilities, and backgrounds <br />have the opportunity to participate and live independently; and <br />Whereas, Louisville must ensure that older Americans have the resources and support <br />needed to stay involved in their communities — reflecting our commitment to <br />inclusivity and connectedness; and <br />Now, therefore, the City Council of Louisville, Colorado does hereby proclaim May 2024 to <br />be Older Americans Month. This year's theme, "Powered by Connection," emphasizes the <br />profound impact of meaningful interactions and social connection on the well-being and <br />health of older adults in our community. I urge every resident to celebrate our older citizens, <br />help to create an inclusive society, and accept the challenge of flexible thinking around aging. <br />DATED this 7th day May 2024 <br />ATTEST: <br />46 <br />SEAL <br />C�ORADO <br />Christophe'IrVA.
