2006 Emergency Assistance Guide For Elder Americans

Older people are especially vulnerable during and after an emergency situation. The Administration on Aging is pleased to announce the 2006 Emergency Assistance Guide. Members of the National Aging Service Network, and others who provide services to older Americans, should study AoA’s Emergency Assistance Guide, share the Guide with others who work with the older Americans, and keep it available as a resource when needed. The Guide is located at aoa.gov/press/preparedness/preparedness.asp
