As the population in Juneau ages, important questions arise: What housing options are available for seniors? What happens when elders want to downsize? Is there enough affordable and accessible housing in Juneau? The dedicated volunteers of the AARP Juneau Community Action Team are actively working to address these concerns and make Juneau more age-friendly for people of all ages. Their mission is to ensure that seniors receive the services they need to remain in their homes as they age.

Their presentations use the mnemonic device “BE MORE” to help people remember the six pillars of brain health: Be social, Engage your brain, Manage stress, Ongoing exercise, Restful sleep, and Eating for health.
