As older adults become the fastest-growing segment of the U.S. population, many carry the weight of debt into retirement, threatening their financial stability and dignity in later life. AFN member RRF Foundation for Aging is confronting this overlooked challenge head-on with a multi-pronged strategy to address debt as a matter of equity, survival, and systemic change. By investing in advocacy, direct relief, coalition infrastructure, and narrative change, RRF is redefining what it means to support aging with security and justice.
