Friends of the National Institute on Aging (FoNIA)
The Friends of the NIA (FONIA) is a broad-based coalition of more than 45 aging, disease, research, and patient groups committed to the advancement of medical research that affects millions of older Americans. FONIA was founded to support the research and training mission of the National Institute on Aging (NIA) and to effectively address current and future challenges in aging research.
Leadership Council of Aging Organizations
The LCAO is a large coalition of the nation's non-profit organizations serving older Americans. The 53 member association is diverse and dedicated to preserving and strengthening the well-being of America's older population, providing a voice for seniors and their families in the ongoing national debate on aging policy.
National Coalition on Mental Health & Aging
The National Coalition on Mental Health & Aging provides opportunities for professional, consumer, and government organizations to work together towards improving the availability and quality of mental health preventive and treatment strategies to older Americans and their families through education, research, and increased public awareness.
transcripts of a Congressional forum on March 17, 2003
With the impending age boom in 2010, our nation must have a healthcare system in place that is prepared for the millions of Americans who will be living with chronic diseases, and that is able to foster the development of future treatments to meet their needs.
The Institute opened its research facility in 1999. It was the first independent institution in the United States to respond to a call from the National Institute of Medicine to establish ten centers to study aging. The majority of the Institute’s funding now comes from federal grants, foundations, and donations.
Beryl Buck was trained as a nurse. Prior to her death in 1975, she asked that the Buck estate be used, in part, “to extend help toward the problems of the aged.”

KLRI differs from most research institutions because we have a wide range of scientific expertise and we focus on the overall effects of aging, rather than disease cures. Safety is also an important element to KLRI, as all studies are carefully performed and accurately communicated. Our scientists are experts in their fields and conscience driven to perform at their highest possible level.
KLRI is performing research to extend our healthy years by improving muscle strength, understanding the role of various nutritional components in our diets, and achieving a better grasp of human aging physiology.
