Chaffee County Public Health and Embracing Aging Chaffee present an interactive hybrid event! Watch a screening of Changing the Narrative's short film, "Antidotes for Ageism" and engage in a discussion about age-friendly health. A primary goal of the event is to empower attendees with the motivation and knowledge needed to become part of the solution and advocate for age-friendly healthcare.

• 26% of Chaffee County is over 65 years of age (double of any surrounding county)

• 17% are between the ages of 55-64  

• The median age is 49.2

There will be an open engagement on the amazing opportunities Salida offers to our aging adults as well as a discussion on what we can do as a community to understand the needs of our aging adults.

This event is in-person and also accessible on Zoom.

Location: Salida Steamplant Theater, 220 W. Sackett Avenue, Salida, CO
