Maine Council on Aging
At Town & Country Federal Credit Union, we believe strong communities are built when people and organizations come together to support one another—especially those who are most vulnerable or often overlooked. In recognition of May’s designation as ‘Older Americans Month’, we are highlighting our partnership with the Maine Council on Aging.
The Maine Council on Aging is doing critical work across Maine to ensure that aging is not only supported but valued. Their mission is centered on improving the lives of older adults through advocacy, education, and collaboration—helping shape a Maine where people can age with dignity, independence, and connection.
Their efforts span a wide range of needs that directly impact older Mainers every day. From addressing affordable housing and transportation challenges to strengthening access to healthcare and caregiver support, the Maine Council on Aging works to break down barriers that can make aging more difficult. Just as importantly, they focus on reducing social isolation and ensuring older adults remain engaged, respected, and active members of their communities.
We see firsthand how financial wellness and quality of life are deeply connected—especially for older adults navigating retirement, rising costs, or unexpected life changes. Supporting the Maine Council on Aging aligns with our commitment to helping members build security and stability at every stage of life.
Maine has the oldest median age of any state in the country, and that reality brings both challenges and opportunities. Organizations like the Maine Council on Aging are essential in helping communities prepare, adapt, and respond in ways that honor the contributions and needs of older residents.
At Town & Country, we are committed to standing alongside partners like the Maine Council on Aging who are helping ensure that aging in Maine is met with respect, resources, and opportunity. Learn more about the Maine Council on Aging here.
