Aging is everyone’s business. That’s why I am proud to be involved with building community support and quality of life around the journey of growing older. I believe that the ability to make good choices depends on reliable resources, which is one of AgeOptions’ key beliefs. It is my privilege and honor to be part of an organization that connects aging with options for living our best life.
