See the public policy platform of Older Michiganians Day 2009, Senior Solutions to Help Michigan Weather the Economic Storm. The platform contains three basic strategies to help Michigan prioritize state support for older adults in a way that best meets the challenges and opportunities presented by the economic climate and aging of the population.
