Advocate

As part of our responsibilities under the Older Americans Act, one of PCOA’s primary responsibilities is to advocate for the needs of older adults locally, statewide, and nationally. Our advocacy work ensures that issues impacting older adults receive the attention they deserve. As a nonprofit, PCOA advocates by educating elected officials, discussing specific legislation, supporting initiatives, and collaborating in community coalitions – all while remaining nonpartisan. 

You can advocate, too! Sign up for our Advocacy Alerts to receive timely emails with urgent opportunities to act – whether by contacting lawmakers, supporting key initiatives, or spreading the word within your network. These alerts make it easy to amplify your voice and bring change where it’s needed most.
