Media perpetuate negative stereotypes about every age group. Let’s celebrate those getting it right. Check out these illustrations and icons from @Co_Generate and @fine_acts. They make great gifts!

Ever had someone say “you look so good for your age!”? There's no right way to look 18, 38, 68 or 88. You can say, “I look my age because I am my age!”
This is our approach at Age-Friendly Greater Pittsburgh. What do you think?

It’s never too late to change our language, and talk about aging in a more positive light. So many great tips in this Language Style Guide by @encore_janine.

Othering older adults means othering our future selves. We are all aging, every day. The world we build today helps all of us, as we grow older.
This is our approach at Age-Friendly Greater Pittsburgh. What do you think?
