Creating Community for a Lifetime
Joining Strength to Strength Briefing

Creating Community for a Lifetime is an independent coalition convened to explore ideas about what constitutes an elder-friendly community and to articulate a shared vision for Kent County.

Together, the community created a roadmap to ensure all older adults have the opportunity to live to their fullest potential.
