New York City (NYC) officials recently collaborated with the Department for the Aging and the Department of Education to launch a new curriculum designed to curb age discrimination in the city. The goal is to educate kids, to teach them that aging shouldn’t be viewed as a disease. Instead, it should be viewed as a natural part of being a human being, a chapter that should be embraced, not vilified.
