❤️🖤💚 Happy Juneteenth from Council on Aging 💚🖤❤️

Today, we recognize Juneteenth and celebrate freedom, history, and community. We honor the stories, strength, and contributions that continue to shape and enrich our communities.

A simple phone call, a shared meal, or a friendly conversation can make all the difference. ❤️

A recent Press Democrat article highlights a growing concern in Sonoma County: too many older adults are experiencing loneliness and social isolation. For some, days can pass without meaningful interaction, impacting both physical and emotional well-being.

At Council on Aging, we see the power of connection every day. Through our Community Dining sites, Spanish- and English-Language Memory Cafés, Adult Day Dementia Program, PEARLS, peer support programs, and volunteer activities, older adults and caregivers can build relationships, find support, and stay engaged in their communities.

💚 No one should have to navigate aging alone. Together, we can create a more connected and caring Sonoma County.

Did you know? Through Council on Aging's Meals on Wheels program, eligible participants can also receive monthly dog or cat food through our Kibbles of Kindness program.

We know that pets provide comfort, companionship, and joy, and no older adult should have to choose between feeding themselves and feeding their beloved pet. ❤️🐶🐱

Every older adult deserves to feel safe, respected, and supported.

This World Elder Abuse Awareness Day, Council on Aging is helping raise awareness about the importance of protecting older adults from abuse, neglect, isolation, and exploitation.

Together, we can support caregivers and families, encourage conversations, and build a safer and more compassionate community for older adults throughout Sonoma County.

Council on Aging’s Elder Advocate Program, based at the Family Justice Center Sonoma County (FJCSC) , provides support, resources, advocacy, and guidance for older adults and families in need.

Thank you to the organizers of the North County Senior Resource Fair for inviting Council on Aging to be part of such a meaningful community event!
We are grateful for the opportunity to connect with older adults, caregivers, families, and community partners while sharing resources that support healthy aging and independent living. It was wonderful to see so many organizations come together with a shared commitment to serving our community.

Thank you to the Town of Windsor, Sonoma County Area Agency on Aging, sponsors, vendors, volunteers, and everyone who attended and stopped by our table. We enjoyed meeting you, answering questions, and sharing information about the programs and services available through Council on Aging.

Together, we are creating a stronger, more connected community for older adults and their families.

💙 Thank you for having us. We look forward to participating in future community events and continuing to support older adults and caregivers throughout Sonoma County.

🌈 Happy Pride Month from Council on Aging! 🌈

This June, we celebrate and honor the LGBTQ+ older adults, caregivers, volunteers, staff, and community members who enrich our lives every day.

At Council on Aging, we believe that everyone deserves to age with dignity, respect, inclusion, and a sense of belonging. We recognize the resilience, contributions, and experiences of LGBTQ+ older adults and remain committed to fostering welcoming and supportive communities for all.

As we celebrate Pride Month, let us continue to build connections, promote understanding, and ensure that every older adult feels seen, valued, and supported.

❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

Happy Pride Month!
