SUMMARY:Libraries as an Invaluable Resource for Older Adults
DESCRIPTION:Libraries are trusted\, familiar spaces that offer invaluable resources—serving as gateways to lifelong learning\, civic engagement\, and social connection. The 2024 NJAAW Survey of Older Adults reinforced this\, finding that older adults are more likely to visit\, trust\, and engage with their local library than with senior centers or other organizations. Leonia Public Library\, under the leadership of Director Michelle Malone\, already exemplifies this through robust programs for older adults\, and we are thrilled they will be hosting the September meeting.   \nJoin us to learn how we can expand partnerships and collaborations with public libraries across New Jersey to amplify their role in the age-friendly movement. \nPlease register here: \n https://lp.constantcontactpages.com/ev/reg/b03174ca-ab50-4e27-9401-f91183c305b4 \n

SUMMARY:Building a Resource Guide 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.\n\nA 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.

SUMMARY:Bergen Roundtable
DESCRIPTION:Advocating for Equity: Expanding Access to Medicaid for Older Adults and People with Disabilities\nJoin us for an interactive conversation about a new coalition of aging and disability advocates working to reform inequitable Medicaid eligibility standards.

Your input and participation in this growing campaign are needed! \nHannah Diamond\, Policy Advocate at Justice in Aging\, will discuss current inequities in Medicaid pathways impacting older adults and people with disabilities\, outline proposed legislative and policy fixes\, and suggest ways Bergen County’s provider community and age-friendly advocates can support this effort. \nQ&A\, discussion and networking to follow
