PCA Advocacy Survey

Philadelphia Corporation for Aging’s advocacy for older adults strives to ensure that the rights and benefits of everyone over the age of 60 and adults with disabilities are protected. Our core advocacy efforts include:

- Making sure we have enough funding to support older adults
- Helping older adults live in their homes for as long as possible
- Working to ensure that services are available to eliminate the risk of elder abuse
