SUPPORTING AND ENGAGING OLDER ADULTS
Assisting older adults with abilities to navigate and explore helpful community resources for their daily life use.
The Juanita C. Grant Foundation and Chattanooga Tennessee Urban League’s Senior Community Service Employment Program are providing certified VCE Ambassadors to conduct outreach calls 1-3 times per week in over 20 states to older adults. These calls are opportunities to help individuals reconnect with their friends, family members and activities in their community.
MAKING THE CASE FOR ECONOMIC STABILITY….
The Juanita C. Grant Foundation (JCGF) conducts ongoing research to examine essential areas that present challenges and rewards for the 50+ community. Our findings show economic stability is the “hub” for maintaining three key areas for a quality life. The areas are (1) to age comfortably in one’s home, (2) socialize to prevent isolation and (3) effectively manage health conditions. With this in mind, JCGF’s education and training programs advocate embracing the Age-Friendly Community principles. JCGF is raising the awareness of communities to plan for all ages to work, play and age well together.
