Way to #ReframeAging! 👏
Instead of “elderly,” or “seniors,” let’s say "older"—older neighbors, residents, adults. Or, skip an age reference altogether!
This is what we say at Age-Friendly Greater Pittsburgh. What are your preferred terms?

One August morning, after purchasing coffee at a Panera drive-thru, Judith drove her Volvo SUV to St. Mary's Cemetery in Newburyport, Mass. She pulled up near a water spigot, and got out to wash her neck + shake out her bedding. It's a daily routine Judith did for nearly a year.
