Getting Around in Age-Friendly Communities
By staying connected to our communities and the places we need and want to go to, we can retain our quality of life, whether we are driving or not.
The Safe Mobility for Life Coalition’s resources can teach you how to evaluate community features that can help you age in place. The Aging in Place webpage includes a video about Age-Friendly communities, information about transportation options, features and services to look for, and more.

There is a Chinese proverb that says “If a family has an old person in it,
it possesses a jewel.”
At the Tallahassee Senior Center we see these folks every day participating in art classes, our Life Long Learning program, fitness classes, and so much more. We meet our mission to keep seniors in our community active and engaged because of the generosity of our supporters. The dollars given to our foundation enable us to offer the programs and classes enjoyed by our participants.
There is a simple way for you to make a powerful impact and put a sparkle in the lives of seniors. We invite you to join our GEM (Give Every Month) club. The sign up is easy and the amount you choose will be donated to our foundation. Your donation is a precious gift to our Senior community.
