The population of older adults in the U.S. is steadily increasing, and people are living longer than ever before. September is Healthy Aging Month, a time to celebrate the positive aspects of aging and explore ways to enhance the wellbeing of older individuals.

Healthy aging encompasses maintaining and improving physical, mental, spiritual, financial and social health.

The University of Minnesota Extension Department of Family, Health and Wellbeing invites anyone who is aging and those who support older adults to visit z.umn.edu/HealthyAgingMonth to access resources and register for free webinars covering topics such as health care directives, transferring non-titled property, preventing financial exploitation, scams targeted at older adults and medicine cabinet safety.
