HomeFit®: Making Home Safe and Livable for All

How can you future-proof your home? This is where AARP can help. AARP surveys consistently find that older adults want to remain in their current homes and communities for as long as possible. Yet barely one percent of the nation’s housing supply contains any “universal design” elements — such as single-story living or a sink that can be reached from a wheelchair. 

Join us for a FREE HomeFit event, where you and your family can explore ways to make your current or future residence your “lifelong home.”

You  can register over the phone by calling North Shore Senior Center at 847.784.6030, by email at LifelongLearning@nssc.org or go online to nssc.org

In this session, you’ll hear about: 

  • Room-by-room suggestions to improve your current housing
  • Quick fixes that can be implemented across many housing types
  • Checklists to help you determine what your home needs to become a better fit as you age. 
  • How Universal Design can accommodate all people

 

Plus, we’ll share more tips and ideas from AARP’s free HomeFit Guide.
