Scope and Content Note

This series documents both the Governor's Conference on Aging and the White House Conference on the Aging, particularly New York's delegation to that latter conference. Records include presentations given at and planning and priority documents developed by regional meetings and committees used for guiding delegates of the Governor's and the White House Conferences, records documenting processes and discussions held at these conferences, committee lists, correspondence among delegates, delegate testimonies (e.g., of Director of the Office for the Aging before the House of Representatives), reports, information for and about delegates, conference publications outlining White House priorities and summarizing the results of the conference, travel arrangements, fiscal materials, agency press releases and bulletins, and related materials. Some of the records document aging in specific groups, such as women, African Americans, and Hispanic Americans, as well as the implications of aging on the national economy.
