The challenge of assisting older workers to obtain suitable employment opportunities is being met nationwide by a variety of organizations. Over 60 of these organizations have combined to create the National Association of Older Worker Employment Services (NAOWES), a constituent unit of the National Council on the Aging.* The NAOWES membership varies in organizational structure and funding source, but each agency carries out similar functions. This paper is devoted to describing the work of NAOWES and its members, outlining the members' varied organizational sponsors and funding sources, detailing the functions carried out by each older worker employment service, and describing the activities, goals, and policies of the association.
