May is Older Americans Month, a perfect time to bring attention to the issues that affect older adults.

This year’s theme, “Working Together for Strong, Healthy, and Supportive Communities,” speaks to creating better care and reinforce healthier societies for all ages.

Our communities can help older adults find the resources to make informed decisions about their health and long-term care options and live safely and independently as long as possible.

Please contact Alternatives for the Older Adult at www.4olderadults.org, to learn how you can help improve the quality of the lives of our area’s older adults.

    One in 10 Americans will celebrate Thanksgiving Day at a restaurant and more than half will purchase restaurant-prepared takeout items. And the cost is up for those doing it all at home. What are you doing this year?
    I am hosting Thanksgiving at my house.
    I will be a guest at someone’s home.
    I plan to eat out at a local restaurant.
    I will eat at home but we are not cooking: Some or all of the food will be catered.
    I hosted Thanksgiving for years. It is someone else’s turn.
    I have no plans.
