Learn about how “Villages”, modeled after Beacon Hill Village in Boston, are being formed for seniors throughout the Capital Region. Villages are membership-driven, grassroots organizations that, through both volunteers and paid staff, coordinate access to affordable services to assist aging in place. These services can include recreational, health and wellness programs, home repairs, social programs, and educational activities. Learn how you can be involved in the Village movement through the Capital Region Villages Collaborative. Our speaker will be Ken Harris, Executive Director Albany Guardian Society. Bring your lunch if you are on lunch hour.
