I'm curious if any communities have taken on discussions and even
created new value statements/policies/practices to address aging in
place - especially in terms of social connections and support. Physical
accessibility is much easier to address compared to the more nebulous
question of how we support and involve our aging members compared with
the attention we give to support children and parents in cohousing. The
latter seems to be much more prevalent as I look at the websites of many
communities. Very little is mentioned about explicit support and
encouragement for older members.
Your experience(s) will be shared at the Northeast Cohousing Conference in Cambridge at the end of the month. Feel free to contact me directly or share on this listserv.
