In Dec. 2009 I retired from Meadowood to start Helping Hands with my husband, sister and brother-in-law. The four of us have many years of experience, and are very reliable, honest and helpful. It takes a special kind of person to give good service in this field and we are considerate and patient.Helping Hands can do everything for anyone who needs help in their home including meal prep, dressing, bathing, light housework, laundry, shopping, feeding, pet care, etc. We can do small “fix it” home repair jobs, light housekeeping, and even give haircuts to folks who are unable to get to a salon or barber.We take people to doctor appointments, to the airport, out to lunch or help them shop. We have free consultation with perspective clients or family members.

Short Description
The Active Aging Coalition is a grassroots organization consisting of seniors, their families, caregivers, and other community advocates interested in improving lives of seniors in our community. Through monthly meetings and community engagement, we learn about each other’s participation in the senior community, find ways to work together more efficiently, and increase our own understanding of available resources.Sometimes, when searching for these resources, gaps in services are discovered as well. This has encouraged creativity among the group to find better ways to use resources that already exist or at times to create entirely new solutions. One such solution was the creation of the Commission on Aging. They have been responsible for the very successful Creative Aging Festival, a month long city-wide celebration of elder artists addressing the benefits of creativity to healthful aging.We produce a monthly newsletter that includes up-to-date meeting minutes, announcements, and upcoming events. We also send out monthly invitations to our upcoming meetings. If you would like to receive these, please click the Contact button and send us your name and email address. Meetings begin and end promptly in recognition of everyone’s busy schedule, but you are welcome to stay longer to visit and network with those you meet. We hope to see you at one of our meetings!
