The Agency on Elderly Affairs (AEA) invites the public to attend the Older Americans Award ceremony on Friday, May 3, at the Outrigger Kaua‘i Beach Resort and Spa in Līhu‘e. The ceremony starts at 9 a.m., and is free and open to the public.

Additionally, the public may purchase tickets to the luncheon held at 11 a.m., following the ceremony. To purchase a ticket, please contact Lainee Carvalho at 808-241-4486. The deadline to RSVP is April 26, 2024.

AEA celebrates Older Americans Month every May and this year eleven older Americans will be recognized: Allen Hom, Beverly A. Gotelli, Bonnie Lake, Carol K. Yotsuda, Gordon K. Doo, Jane E. Goldsmith, Kimo K. Keawe, Maura Sabado, Paula M. Schultz, Veronica B. Carillio, and Zenon Wong.

Two honorees, male and female, will also be revealed at the ceremony to represent Kaua‘i at the State Recognition Ceremony held on June 7, 2024, on O‘ahu.

Established in 1963, Older Americans Month (OAM) is celebrated every May. Led by a federal agency, the Administration for Community Living (ACL), OAM is a time to recognize older Americans' contributions, highlight aging trends, and reaffirm commitments to serving the older adults in our communities.

This year’s theme, 'Powered by Connection,' focuses on the profound impact that meaningful connections have on the well-being and health of older adults — a relationship underscored by the U.S. Surgeon General's Advisory on the Healing Effects of Social Connection and Community.

“It's not just about having someone to chat with,” said Kealoha Takahashi, Executive for the Agency on Elderly Affairs. “It's about the transformative potential of community engagement in enhancing mental, physical, and emotional well-being.” According to Takahashi, by recognizing and nurturing the role that connection plays, we can mitigate issues like loneliness, ultimately promoting healthy aging for more Americans.
