With the goal of promoting safer and affordable communities, "Livable Communities for All Ages" features a specific guide on which aspects of civic life—whether the local Chamber of Commerce or an individual— can respond to the maturing of America with instructive measures on the benefits of older adult livability adaptations in four areas:

* Housing
* Transportation
* Workforce Development
* Civic and Cultural Engagement/Lifelong Learning

Harnessing the expertise and experience of the aging population is one of the key assets that transforms a vulnerable community into a livable community.
