This Older Americans Month, we’re honoring the strength, wisdom, and experiences of older adults in our communities! 💚

Through the Strategies to Advance Greater Elder Safety (STAGES) project, FUTURES works to promote justice, economic security, legal system alternatives, and community partnerships that help create safer, more supportive environments for older adults.

We’re grateful to the partners, advocates, and community leaders who help uplift this work every day!

Gaming can be a place where young people build friendships and community, but it can also be where stress and mental health challenges show up in ways that are easy to miss. 🎮💚

Whether you’re a coach, mentor, moderator, gamer, parent, or caregiver, small moments matter. Checking in, encouraging respect online, and showing genuine interest can help young people feel supported both on and offline!

Through our Team: Changing Minds program, we equip caring adults with practical skills to recognize youth mental health challenges and help connect young people to support sooner, not later.

Federal funding is critical to ensuring survivors

Federal funding is critical to ensuring survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault can access lifesaving services and support. Funding delays have real and immediate consequences for survivors and the programs they depend on.

☎️ Contact your representatives through the Capitol Switchboard at (202) 224-3121 and urge them to call on the DOJ and HHS to immediately publish NOFOs and expedite the release of congressionally appropriated funds. Survivors can’t wait!
