Our seniors provide community wisdom and are protectors of our history. I consider them one of my most important and vulnerable constituencies. Now more than ever, seniors are facing challenges that threaten their health, safety, and their ability to continue living in the homes and communities they love. That’s why I’m fighting for critical supports like Senior Villages, a program that helps seniors stay at home in their neighborhoods, and direct care professionals who provide important aid to help seniors maintain quality of life. I’m also working to make sure city services are working for seniors – everything from safe sidewalks and good affordable housing to ensuring that their grandchildren have the highest quality schools we can provide.
