The objective of the present article is to raise a proposal of psychological intervention directed to older adults making a distinction between the institutionalized adults from the noninstitutionalized ones, taking as reference the present situation of the adult, the studies developed at this stage and specifically those related to the design of intervention programs. We expose the proposal of psychological intervention that tries not only to improve the quality of life of the older adult but to include them from their diverse areas.
