Thriving in 2025: CDHS flips the script on aging during Older Americans Month
The Colorado Department of Human Services (CDHS) is celebrating Older Americans Month this May, honoring the contributions, resilience and vitality of older adults across the state. This year’s theme, “Flip the Script on Aging” reflects a growing awareness that older adulthood is not a winding down, but a stepping up. CDHS is proud to celebrate the ways older adults contribute to Colorado and the nation as we support them thriving in their communities.
For the first time in our state’s history, more Coloradans are older than 60 years than are younger than 18 years. CDHS recently released the State’s first-ever Multisector Plan on Aging to improve and develop resources to support all Coloradans as we age. An initial draft of the plan, which lays the groundwork for the future, is now available for review. Check out the press release.
