New National Movement to Build Justice Across Generations [VIDEO]

July 14, 2011 · By Matias Ramos

As America's "age wave" begins this year - with one American turning 65 every eight seconds - Caring Across Generations seeks to transform long-term care in the United States.

Senior White House Advisor Valerie Jarrett and Secretary of Labor Hilda Solis were among the 700 people who on Tuesday, July 12, joined at the Washington Hilton Hotel to launch the Caring Across Generations campaign: a movement to protect and expand our nation’s support system for the aging and people with disabilities at a time when the need for care in America is skyrocketing.
