Age-Friendly Atlanta Walk Audit a Success

1007

Today's Age-Friendly Atlanta Walk Audit involved over 60 participants, hosted by AARP Georgia, The City of Atlanta, Mayor’s Office of Constituent Services, and PEDS – metro Atlanta’s pedestrian advocacy organization at the Georgia Hill Neighborhood Center in the Summerhill Community.

"The AARP Network of Age-Friendly Communities helps participating communities become great places for all ages by adopting such features as safe, walkable streets; better housing and transportation options; access to key services; and opportunities for residents to participate in community activities," said Joe Dukes, AARP Georgia State President. "Today’s walk audit will provide recommended actions for community improvements. We hope this will result in one positive step towards helping families benefit more from living in Atlanta."
