The Coalition is a dynamic group of organizations and individuals that work collaboratively to give voice to issues that affect older North Carolinians. The Coalition engages in a variety of activities and efforts that focus on issues of common interest across our membership. 

Consistent with the Coalition’s mission and values, we share a commitment of equity for every older adult regardless of age, gender, race, sexuality, income or geography. We believe that all older North Carolinians must have equal opportunities for optimal health and for the highest quality of life. We pledge to leverage the strength of our organization and apply our collective efforts to create positive, systematic changes that can champion a culture of fairness, belonging and well-being in all we do.
