VANCOUVER – The Commission on Aging’s charge is to provide leadership in addressing the special needs of the aging population and to manage and assist with the implementation of the county’s Aging Readiness Plan. This month, the Commission focuses on Chapter 3 of the Aging Readiness Plan, “Housing: Housing Options for Our Aging Population,” by hosting area experts for a discussion about area options for affordable housing and specialized senior living. Area residents can join in welcoming representatives from Specialized Housing, and the Vancouver Housing Authority, and Elie Kassab from Prestige Development.
The meeting will be held 4:30 p.m. Wednesday, March 19, and is open to the public.
