Is This House Still Serving You? • June 17 • 2 p.m.
As we move into summer, it’s a natural time to reflect. The home that worked years ago may not fit the same today. This session explores how housing needs change over time and offers simple tools to help you plan ahead, reduce stress, and support long-term safety and independence.
Aging Independently: Planning Before A Crisis • July 15 • 2 p.m.
What does independence really mean as we grow older? Is it staying in the same home no matter what, or having the ability to make thoughtful choices before someone else makes them for us? This session explores housing, support systems, finances, and decision-making, and how planning ahead can help preserve control, dignity, and options for the future.
