For a long time, we've been talking about better ways to tell the stories of the people who work to improve the lives and circumstances of people as they age.
"We" are the folks at The Milwaukee Aging Consortium, a membership organization for those people, who range from direct care workers to housing developers.
And everyone in between.
If you're passionate about making the lives of older people in Milwaukee (or anywhere) better, here's your chance to weigh in, personally and professionally. Remember that this is a public forum, and while it's appropriate to talk about "difficult" problems, it's not the intention of this blog to be a gripe fest or a tool for bashing!
Tell us your stories about aging.
What's going on that others should know about?
Who's doing a great job?
What's being done to fill in gaps?
In February, we're holding an Issues in Aging Summit: Expanding Housing Options. What do you think needs to be done to help people stay in their homes, their communities, or better places as they age?
About Me

- Former good girl gone to the dogs. Job hunting again, I could write the book of conventional advice. Let someone else do that. I'll follow my nose and worry these experiences as fiercely and passionately as a dog does a bone. And then take a nap. Woof! Woof!!! Oh: Search engines? This is not about dogs. Not really. It's about work and life when following the rules just doesn't seem to work anymore.

I'm old and tired of looking for a smaller residence that is quiet. I urge the panel of speakers on 12/02/07 on Housing to reflect on the noisy condos and apartments being built. Especially since the elderly tend to pump up volumes...
Why don't builders, designers have noise insulation in the walls for senior citizens? Most of us who are looking to sell our homes are repelled by the lack of quiet and privacy.
