Be a part of the Village Movement!

Join us for a presentation and discussion with Ann Albert, Executive Director of SAIL, a Madison-based non-profit “virtual village”. Part club, part HOA, and part concierge service, “virtual villages” are popping up
everywhere to support older adults wishing to live active lives in their home communities, care for homes and address needs related to aging in place. Let’s get familiar with the village concept, and consider how it might be applied here!
