Part 1: Building Age-Friendly Communities In A (Sometimes) Unfriendly World, with host Denise Schwartz

In uncertain times, there is no substitute for actually talking to each other. On this episode of Backyard OASIS, Denise Schwartz and Jason Molony, the age- and dementia-friendly program director at Life Path in Greenfield, MA, have a frank conversation about the kinds of communities older adults want to live in as we age. How do we build supportive, inclusive, and age-friendly communities in a society that is aging faster than at any other time in history? Systems-level change may be necessary, but conversations like this are a good place to start!
