Wabasha-Kellogg AARP Network

AARP recently welcomed Wabasha-Kellogg into its Network of Age-Friendly States and Communities.

Now numbering 755 communities, the Network provides resources and information on age-friendly best practices, models and research to members working to improve community livability.

Membership offers opportunities to collaborate and learn from others working toward the same goal.

Locally, this work began earlier this year in response to the Wabasha County Community Health Needs Assessment.

Last year’s assessment identified senior health and mental health as the most important health priorities to address over the next three years.
