Thank you to the Philadelphia Corporation for Aging (PCA) for hosting and for allowing the Mayor's Commission to be a partner in the Legislative Breakfast. It is through strong partnerships like this that we continue to serve and support our aging population the way we do.

We are also excited to sit beside elected officials and community leaders who are just as committed to supporting older adults in our city. Together, we’re building stronger, more age-friendly communities. "
