Government Aid for Seniors

As aging adults become older, it gets harder to take care of the bills, stay healthy, and eat nutritious foods. Thankfully, government programs are available to help many elderly. While various programs can help senior citizens with tight finances, they don’t cover all seniors, and they may only cover small fractions of what’s actually needed. The poverty rate among Americans over the age of 65 is on the rise. According to the latest U.S. Census Bureau data, the share of older people in the U.S. living below the poverty line rose to 10.3% in 2021 from 8.9% in 2020.

That means nearly 6 million older adults in the country are struggling to make ends meet. It is important that seniors understand their options to find the best government aid for their needs and allow them to thrive physically, emotionally, and mentally.
