Helping You Age Well, Your Way!
Life can be complicated. Aging in place is what we want to educate consumers on. When changes occur due to health, family dynamics, finances, etc., help is needed to make good decisions. Whether you need to find a service or learn about your options by talking with a professional, you’ve come to the right place. The AgeSmart Community Resources works to help older adults remain independent in their homes and communities. Through planning, funding, responding to community needs and providing answers on aging, AgeSmart Community Resources helps people AGE WELL THEIR WAY.
AGESMART’S LEARNING CHANNEL
AgeSmart is partnering with GetSetup to offer a free online learning pilot program for a limited time to help you stay connected, learn new skills so you can live your life to the fullest.
