Building a Resource Guide for Age-friendly Communities

Zoom

As we have learned from NJAAW surveys, most NJ residents are not aware of the numerous resources available to help them age in place. There are various programs, services and organization with a local focus but all too often the information is not consolidated in one place. Join AFNJ's Virtual Meeting on Wednesday, Feb. 26 @10 AM, as West Orange and South Orange/Maplewood lead a presentation on Building Resource Guides for Age-Friendly Communities. Learn from their collective experience, interact with haptics of an on-line flip book demonstration, and master how to create a resource guide for your community. A comprehensive resource guide tailored to your community can help support residents to age in place. Join us to share, inspire and inform what other communities are doing to communicate key information to older adults.
