History of National Senior Citizens Month
In April, 1963, President John F. Kennedy met with the National Council on Senior Citizens. Their meeting was the foundation for an annual observation of May as Senior Citizens Month. Every President since has issued a formal proclamation during or before the month of May asking that the entire nation pay tribute in some way to older persons in their communities. President Jimmy Carter originated the title of Older Americans Month in his 1980 proclamation. In 1963, only 17 million Americans were age 65 or older and about a third of them lived in poverty. Today, there are more than 36 million Americans over the age of 65, accounting for 12 percent of the total population, though only 10 percent live in poverty. The oldest of the baby boom generation began turning 60 in 2006. The U.S. Census Bureau estimates that, by 2050, 87 million Americans will be age 65 or older – 21 percent of the population.
