Center Who We Are: The Center for Positive Aging is a partnership of individuals, community organizations and congregations working together to connect seniors and their families to the resources they need. In December of 2008, the Center for Positive Aging became the consumer arm of Aging Services of Georgia ( visit www.agingservicesga.org for more information ). With this expansion of the mission of the Center, the Center can now position the unique services it provides to serve all of Georgia. When Georgians sort through the maze of services available to aging persons, they can rely on the Center as the trusted source of information to connect them to the resources they need. The Center for Positive Aging connects those who need assistance to the vast network of information, programs, and services available for seniors and their families. Our Congregational Affiliates and Community Partners expand outreach to all members of the community through their participation in the Center for Positive Aging health/outreach fairs, seminars, and special events. We promote the physical, mental, and spiritual well-being of all. Our purpose is to educate consumers about the types of services to assist in successful, positive aging. We support the ideals of maintaining dignity, independence, and usefulness through a variety of programs, educational events, and volunteer opportunities. We are committed to providing seniors with the information they need, and serving as a connection to the programs and services they want, to maintain independent living. The Baby Boom generation holds 70% of the assets in the United States and is better-educated and healthier than previous generations. This population of seniors is expected to double in the next 15 years. The Atlanta Regional Commission states that changing demands will require shifts in supportive service systems because older adults make up almost 500, 000 people in the Metropolitan Atlanta area. Bill Benson, national expert on issues in the field of aging, suggested four great challenges before us with regard to an aging society and building a commitment to a positive aging future. The challenges are:
