ECHO Workshop Recap
Aging in Montgomery County:
Creating an Inclusive Community for a Lifetime
This workshop was made possible by a joint collaboration between the MCDHHS Office of Community Affairs and Aging and Disability Services. This is the first in a three-part series which focuses on the impact and opportunities that come with an aging community. Part two and three of this series will follow in the spring and fall of 2017.
Dr. John Kenney, Chief of Aging and Disability Services, led the workshop. He provided an overview of the diversity in the aging population in the County and presented a new perspective on aging. Workshop attendees participated in a small group activity that allowed them to discuss and articulate the opportunities older people bring to our community and the ways in which the County can utilize those opportunities.
