Coalition of Services of the

Elderly, Inc. (COSE)

Is these looming crisis in a

society that has traditionally

held the elderly in high

regard?

We believe a structural problem

needs a structural response –

older people organize other older people

Organized poor older people

become home carers and

community health workers

and run their own drug stores

and advocate local and national

governments

and help each other in time of

disaster

and prepare for disaster

and come to enjoy each other

Older people need each other as

much as they need the family

Isn’t it time to organize

community based programs in

the whole country?
