Time: 6-7:00 pm
Location: Joyce Young Center, RecPlex West, 965 Miamisburg-Centerville Road, Washington Township, OH 45459
Join us for an engaging panel discussion exploring the connections between aging in place, community inclusion, and the relationships that help people feel supported throughout their lives. Through shared experiences, practical insights, and community-centered ideas, our panelists will discuss the challenges and opportunities of navigating healthcare, accessing reliable transportation, and building stronger connections across generations.
The conversation will highlight creative approaches to supporting all family members, including intergenerational activities, and opportunities for neighbors, families, and community organizations to foster meaningful relationships. Together, we will explore how small acts of connection, accessible resources, and a sense of belonging can make a lasting difference in the lives of our community members.
Whether you are an older adult, caregiver, family member, community advocate, or simply someone who believes in the power of connection, this discussion invites you to listen, share, and discover ways to create a more inclusive, supportive, and connected community where people of all ages can thrive.
