Healthy living is healthy aging. Developing and maintaining healthy aging practices throughout the lifespan contributes to greater resilience and opportunities to thrive as we age — from infancy through older adulthood.
At ODPHP, our Healthy Aging work is grounded in research that demonstrates:
- Healthy aging begins early in life
- Improving older adult health and well-being impacts all of society and people of all ages
- Health disparities people experienced early in life often affect their health throughout the lifespan
