    Aging in California Special

    Across California, older adults and caregivers are navigating the realities of aging and finding strength through community, care, and support. A new 30-minute special, titled "Aging in California," brings their stories to life, showing how state and local programs are helping people stay connected, live with dignity, and plan for the future.

    The program highlights a wide range of services, including CalFresh Healthy Living, In-Home Supportive Services (IHSS), Caregiver Resource Centers, and affordable housing initiatives. It offers a real look at how California is building a more age-friendly state through collaboration and innovation.

    Produced in partnership with local health experts, community advocates, California Health & Human Services departments, and ABC, the special reflects the power of listening, learning, and taking action together.
