Advocating for Seniors
The Idaho Commission on Aging advocates for all seniors to remain independent, avoid institutionalization, and live without abuse, neglect or exploitation. To help identify our needs, here are a few questions that we should ask ourselves as we age:

- What is financial security?
- What services and supports are available?
- How can we protect our dignity?
