We need to "Flip the Script" - Literally – from the Arc to the U - for a few reasons... 1 - U Curve of Happiness 2 - U for Universal Design 3 - U for Us We Flip the Script Not by denying the hardships, but By Expanding & Balancing out the conversation about aging and by learning to recognize limitations that are rooted in #ageism & not in aging. Using Ageism Awareness as a tool to empower older adults to Expand the choices they see for themselves & their futures & take the actions that will reduce falls, medical costs, and drive development in the Aging in Place market. #OlderAmericansMonth #customizedaging #ageismproof #universaldesign #enablingdesign #modifyormove #agefriendly #visitibility #intergenerational #sharingresources #flipthescriptonaging
