LCCOA is a NCDAAS senior center of excellence!
Every May, the Administration for Community Living (ACL) leads the nation’s observance of Older Americans Month (OAM), a time to recognize older Americans' contributions, highlight aging trends, and reaffirm our commitment to serving older adults.
The 2025 theme, Flip the Script on Aging, focuses on transforming how society perceives, talks about, and approaches aging. It encourages individuals and communities to challenge stereotypes and dispel misconceptions. This year, join us in honoring older adults’ contributions, exploring the many opportunities for staying active and engaged as we age, and highlighting the opportunities for purpose, exploration, and connection that come with aging.
Join LCCOA in celebrating on May14, 2025 for Senior Appreciation Day at the Kinston Community Center. We will start with our annual Elder Abuse walk to bring attention to the challenge of elder abuse at 9:30 a.m. Afterward, enjoy exploring services in Lenoir County that serve older adults. We'll have speakers and other fun activities. The event ends at 1:00 p.m.
A lunch will be served but you must RSVP to Betsy or Rebecca at 252-527-1545 by May 7 as there are only a limited number of meals. You must be age 60+ to enjoy the meal.
