mission statement

The Senior Agenda Coalition is an independent and diverse coalition of agency and individual members. Our mission is to mobilize people and implement an agenda that improves the quality of life of older Rhode Islanders. We accomplish this through community organizing, public education and legislative action.

Updates from our Executive Director

Dear Friends,

Despite the COVID-19 pandemic, we have not been idle at the Senior Agenda Coalition.  We have published four e-newsletters, a phone campaign  to protect vital senior services, and our strategic plan.  We will continue to keep you informed, and look forward  to brighter times with you in 2021! 


In our opinion

Rhode Island's older adults have suffered  disproportionately during these long months of the pandemic, and the Senior Agenda Coalition has spoken out forcefully about both the redistribution of Medicaid dollars and the retention of funding for community services that are so vital to their well being.  Read the two  Providence Journal op-ed articles below:
