The three hour-long, virtual events on October 4th and two on October 6th will specifically cover the following issues as they relate to older adults:
- Workforce: Older adults are becoming the fastest growing segment of our state’s workforce. Learn about the needs of older workers and the opportunity this offers our economy.
- Housing: Colorado is facing a housing crisis. Hear about the specific implications for older adults.
- Consumer protection: Attempts at fraud and exploitation touch every Coloradan. We will discuss these trends as they relate to older Coloradans.
- Economic security: The cost of food, health care, and utilities are significant for many Coloradans, particularly those with limited or fixed income. We will cover how rising costs touch the lives of older adults.
