As more older adults seek to age in place, the Y is expanding critical support for vulnerable older adults in our community to live out their lives with dignity.
With the generous support of the Fan Fox & Leslie R. Samuels Foundation, the Y is launching the Aging in Place Outreach Network (APON) to build a network of local community members who will be trained to recognize signs that their older neighbors could use additional help or need assistance at home.
Upon referral, the Y will provide a thorough psychological assessment, crisis intervention, and trauma-informed care. The Y may also complete a safety audit on an apartment to limit falls, help recover lost benefits after a spouse passes away, provide transportation to and from medical appointments, or deliver emergency meals.
