Read the latest press release from AARP New York and LiveOn NY that calls on the city to go beyond Mayor Bill de Blasio’s preliminary budget by increasing funding for homecare services to allow growing numbers of older middle class New Yorkers to age in their own homes with dignity, rather than in institutional care settings that cost taxpayers even more.

At the core of LiveOn NY’s mission is the desire to support our membership organizations, numbering over 100 organizations that provide 600 community based programs and services for older adults, ranging from individual community based centers to large multi-service organizations throughout all five boroughs.
