Bill overview
This bill aimed to create an Office of Older Adult Advocate in Massachusetts to protect the rights and interests of older adults. The office would have worked to identify and address issues faced by seniors, such as access to healthcare, housing, and financial assistance. It would have served as a central point of contact for seniors to report concerns and receive support. Ultimately, the bill failed to pass the legislature.
