Did you know the Habitat for Humanity Aging in Place program helps older adults age at home and in communities of their choice? Their local Habitat affiliates will evaluate individual needs and provide critical home repairs, modifications, and community services specific to each homeowner’s lifestyle to preserve their home and independence.

As our parents age, we find ourselves on a challenging emotional journey, one that often remains unspoken but deeply felt. It’s the journey of anticipatory grief, a complex mix of emotions and thoughts that arise as we witness our parents becoming older, weaker, and more frail. This concept, often overshadowed by post-loss grief, is equally devastating.
