To kick off the 50th anniversary of #NationalVolunteerWeek, TCAD released our annual Volunteer Impact Report! With over $16 million worth of in-kind contributions, almost 12,000 volunteers made a difference for our aging population last year. Read more: tn.gov/aging/publicat…
As the aging population in TN continues to grow, we want to inspire younger generations to work in professions that assist older adults. Great to be at Crockett County High School today to talk about #dementia and brain health!
Since our state's inception, we have shown a culture of service! Many of our programs could not succeed without the selfless service of volunteers. April is #NationalVolunteerMonth and we're going to be spotlighting the many Tennesseans who represent what it means to give back!
Our Aging Nutrition Director, Keita, recently presented @MTSU's Positive Aging Conference. Good nutrition is critical to supporting independent & healthy aging. Thank you for having us to spread the word on our program serving over 3 million meals annually to older Tennesseans!
Happy #Easter Tennessee!
Our offices are closed today in observance of #GoodFriday. We hope you and your family have a safe and restful #Easter weekend.
Exciting news for Tennesseans with disabilities and their families who love our beautiful @TennStateParks!

Today is National Letter to an Elder Day! Letters are a powerful way to stay connected and older adults would love to receive a letter showing your appreciation for them. Pick up a pen and paper and send a letter to an older loved one today! #LettersToAnElderDay
There are over 700 long-term care facilities in the state. Was great to meet with @THCATNCAL and continue discussions on purposeful and patient-centered care for long-term care residents as we work to merge with @DIDD_TN.

Love is in the air on #ValentinesDay, but so are scams. Romance scams run on dating apps or social media are increasingly targeting older adults. Know the warning signs ⬇️ cbsnews.com/news/online-da…
African Americans play a vital role in our nation's history. Tennesseans like Aretha Franklin, Wilma Rudolph & so many others were trailblazers in their industries and made society a better place. During #BlackHistoryMonth, we reflect on their contributions to our shared story.

I enjoyed spending time with @alzTN today discussing the Governor’s proposal to create the Department of Disability and Aging. I’m looking forward to partnering with advocates to support those facing Alzheimer’s and related dementias as well as their caregivers.
Wonderful discussion with the Tennessee HealthCare Association yesterday in Nashville. Grateful for their efforts and looking forward to expanded discussions on serving aging Tennesseans with dignity and compassion.
I’m pleased to join @TNAGING to discuss the proposal to create the new Department of Disability and Aging. I’m excited to continue to collaborate with commission members on the issues that impact older adults and people with disabilities.

Many thanks to the @myTDOT crews that worked around the clock during January’s winter weather conditions to keep Tennesseans safe.

Grateful to meet with the 9 leaders from the Tennessee Development District Association this morning. Enjoyed a robust discussion on the needs of our aging population and how we can work together to improve quality of life, outcomes, and opportunities for older Tennesseans.
Thank you @ADvancingStates and @NCOAging for meeting with me today in Virginia. Both @martharoherty and @Ramsey_Alwin have all-star teams dedicated to the advocacy and dignity of older Americans. Excited to partner together in TN as we move the discussion forward! #TCAD #DIDD
November is National Family Caregivers Month, a time to recognize and honor the dedication and selflessness of those who provide support and care to their loved ones in need. Let’s show our appreciation for the unsung heroes that make a difference every day!
We will never forget the heroic first responders & innocent lives lost 22 years ago on 9/11. Today, we pray for the families forever changed by this tragedy & honor the members of our nation’s Armed Forces who continue to protect the freedoms we hold dear.
