The following posters, toolkits and guides are resources that the Department for the Aging's community partners have found useful as they work with us to create successful programs and provide services to older adults.

Providing Evidence-Based Health Promotion Programs

The National Council on Aging has information on why evidence-based health practices are important for older adults and how best to implement them.

Elder Abuse Awareness

A study from NYC Aging and other organizations found that 76 in 1,000 older New York state residents were victims of elder abuse during a one-year period. A NYC Aging ad campaign that portrays elder abuse also raises awareness about the issue.

Local Providers

Find local providers for elder abuse, case-management, and other services on our Find Services page.
