An emergency can hit at a moment’s notice – whether it’s a natural disaster like flooding, wildfires or high winds, or a personal emergency like a house fire. “When an emergency hits, adrenaline kicks in making it hard to think straight,” said Joseph Roybal Sanchez, AARP New Mexico State Director. “You may only have minutes to get your family, your pets and yourself to safety.”
$69,000 in grants aim to help residents of all ages, especially older adults, improve how they live, move, and stay connected in their neighborhoods through innovative local projects.
