Elevate Aging @ the Capital

As a part of the Peninsula Task Force on Aging, we are dedicated to advocating for seniors in the community to ensure their needs are met by the Legislature on every level in three key areas: Transportation, Health Care & Housing. Senior Day at the Capital acts as a catalyst to bring together our aging community and its advocates to propel our state Legislature to establish and maintain our seniors’ rights.

Additionally, Senior Day at Capitol Hill allows attendees the opportunity to meet legislators & elected officials to learn about what is in store for older Virginians in the future and potential future legislation.
