AARP Vermont has awarded Winter Placemaking Grants to eight organizations across the state to support creative, inclusive programming that fosters community connection and combats social isolation among older adults during the coldest months of the year.
AARP Vermont will hold a four-part, in-person workshop series this fall for older adults interested in becoming local advocates for transportation options beyond driving.
AARP Vermont and America Walks are teaming up on a six-month fellowship program for adults 50-plus who want to learn how to make their communities healthier and more walkable.
AARP Vermont, in collaboration with the Department of Health and the Lamoille County Planning Commission, brought in Tina Ansong from ChangeLab Solutions to provide a health equity training aimed at improving the built environment. This training was designed specifically for Regional Planning Commission & District Health Office Staff from across Vermont who are working with towns to enhance the walkability and livability of their communities.
