The Exploratory Committee for Helping Citizens Age in Place in Talbot County is hosting additional meetings in the community to explore senior care service gaps that may exist in Talbot County. This new coalition is comprised of community service organizations, elder care providers, experts on aging, and concerned citizens, who have joined forces to explore introducing the national “Village Concept” to Talbot County. A Village is a network of neighbors helping neighbors by providing support services and the social and educational programs needed to help older adults stay in their homes and remain active in their communities for as long as possible.
There will be a meeting on Wednesday, June 17, 2015 at the Trappe Volunteer Fire Department at 4001 Powell Avenue in Trappe from 2:00 to 3:30 p.m. and 6:30 to 8:00 p.m. There will also be an additional meeting in Easton on Monday, June 29, 2015 at Brooklett’s Place (Talbot Senior Center) at 400 Brooklett’s Avenue in Easton from 2:00 to 3:30 p.m. and 6:30 to 8:00 p.m.
