Community Aging

Community aging refers to the process of supporting and adapting neighborhoods and services to meet the needs of older adults. It involves creating accessible, safe, and engaging environments that promote independence, health, and social connection for seniors. This approach emphasizes collaborative planning among local governments, organizations, and residents to ensure age-friendly infrastructure, transportation, healthcare, and social opportunities. Ultimately, community aging aims to enhance quality of life for older adults, fostering inclusive communities where they can thrive and remain active members.
