CGAC Promotes Fun, Fellowship & Friends
Healthy Aging Supports a Thriving Community
The aging of the U.S. population is one of the major public health challenges of the 21st century. By 2030, baby boomers will be age 65 or older, which means that 1 out of every 5 US citizens will be of retirement age.
Aging adults who pursue an active lifestyle and maintain social connections live longer, have more years of good health and enjoy reduced health care costs. These seniors are better able to support other family members and friends as caregivers and are equipped to contribute to the community as volunteers. CGAC's programming for seniors to stay active, engaged, and healthy. CGAC's newly renovated facility is an inviting, comfortable, and safe place to fellowship and stay connected.
The Comfort Golden Age Center's Strategic Plan has been developed to support the Comfort area aging and senior community in a way that promotes health, safety, and independence in an age-friendly environment.
