A number of readers of our blog have asked for more information on the rationale for The Legacy Project, and why we feel it’s so important to collect the practical advice for living of older Americans.

For some answers, take a look at our new article that was just published in the Journal of Active Aging, a publication of the International Council on Active Aging. 

If you’re not aware of it already, the ICAA is a great organization thatbrings together professionals – in such areas as fitness, rehabilitation, wellness, and assisted living – “to empower aging Baby Boomers and older adults to improve their quality of life and maintain their dignity.” They stand for the same principles that inspired the Legacy Project: To honor the wisdom and vitality of our older citizens.
