Aging With Grace in Cape Meares
At CACC gatherings, we highlight concerns around aging in place in our small communities, and facilitate social connections that enrich our lives.
Our villages in the Nehalem Bay Area comprise a naturally occurring retirement community — a place where more than half the residents are of retirement age. Yet there are not sufficient services to support aging in place; we rely on neighbors helping neighbors.
A shining example community self-reliance, the village of Cape Meares has taken on the aging-in- place challenge.
The tiny village of Cape Meares, tucked along the northern foot of the towering Cape Meares, is home to only 90 full-time residents. Median age in the village is 75 years.
Join us November 10, 2 to 4PM, to learn how residents of this isolated village are actively nurturing a community of support and awareness to prepare residents for aging-in-place and end of life.
We welcome Beverly Stein, Kathy Burke and Narayan Lincoln from the Aging With Grace program of the Cape Meares Community Association to the Pine Grove in Manzanita. It’s an opportunity to learn from this proactive group, exchange ideas, share resources and envision collaboration between our small North Coast communities. Come join the conversation!
