On #InternationalDayofOlderPersons, we’re reminded that everyone deserves to live and age with dignity, choice, and independence. We need a care system that supports all of us to live and age where and how we choose.

A poster with the text: "Most people want to receive aging and disability care at home and in their communities. But too many people face barriers to getting the care they need, including strict financial eligibility requirements, a lack of affordable and accessible housing, and difficulty finding care workers in an underpaid and undervalued workforce. We need a care system that gives everyone the choice to live and age where and how they want.” At the bottom, there's a banner that reads "International Day of Older Persons." The background shows a garden scene.

Child care now costs over $13,000 a year. Grandparents are increasingly stepping in, but not every family has that option. We need real investment in a child care that works for everyone. www.npr.org/2026/09/20/nx-s1-596350…

Text discussing childcare costs in the U.S. from Child Care Aware of America, stating the average annual cost for children under 5 in 2025 was $13,184. It mentions difficulties families face in securing childcare, often relying on grandparents. A quote from Nicole Jorwic of Caring Across Generations is included, emphasizing a lack of investment in childcare infrastructure.

Even Spider-Man knows that the real villain isn’t needing care – it’s a system that makes people fight for the care we need. 🕷️

A character in a Spider-Man costume is gesturing emphatically towards a person in tactical gear. A post by "caringacrossgen" is overlaid, stating, "WE NEED A CARE SYSTEM THAT WORKS AND CARES FOR EVERYONE! For the millionth time!

A group of Spider-Man characters swings through a cityscape, with labels above them. The labels read: "Care that works for everyone," "Medicaid cuts," "Rising care costs," "Broken care system," and "Work requirements." Buildings are visible in the background.

Make it make sense 🏹 Accessing care shouldn't feel like an odyssey for the caregivers and care recipients who depend on it.

A social media post by Caring Across Generations. The caption reads, "Congress when you tell them we all depend on Medicaid." Below is a meme image showing a person smiling, with the text: "Somebody get these BEGGARS out of here!" The image is dark and focuses on the person's expression.

A social media post from Caring Across Generations features an image of a person with eyes closed, mouth open, expressing a strong emotion. The background is blurred, with indistinct structures. The post text reads: "when they say we can't afford to fund care but somehow there's always money for something else."

Anne Hathaway as Penelope in "The Odyssey" holding a large, ornate bow, reminiscent of scenes from classical mythology. The individual's expression is focused. Below the image is a tweet by "Caring Across Generations", drawing a metaphor between a scene in "The Odyssey" involving suitors and the challenges faced by family caregivers in a flawed care system.

No one should have to choose between a paycheck and their health care. New Medicaid work rules add more red tape for caregivers, and increase hurdles to care for disabled people. www.nytimes.com/2026/06/01/upshot/t…

Newspaper-style announcement with the headline, "Trump Administration Announces Stricter Rules for Medicaid Work Requirement," mentioning the potential loss of coverage for people with serious illnesses. Includes logos for The New York Times and Caring Across Generations, with stickers reading "Thanks, I hate it" and the presidential seal in the background.

Image with text about new rules affecting disabled people, highlighting how exemptions based on health or disability status are changing. Workers must now prove they work at least 80 hours a month to retain care. If they can't meet this requirement, they risk losing it but keeping their paycheck.
