Abstract
This report presents a list of current state legislative initiatives which directly or indirectly, affect older women in Massachusetts.
Despite the progress made by the Commonwealth in the area of elder services, a significant portion of this population continues to live in dire need. It is important that State Legislators, State Administrators, policymakers and community leaders understand the needs of this population and work to increase the financial resources and enhance the dignity of older women in the Commonwealth.
