Growing elder in age is a life course and gives people the opportunity to explore new activities and contribute to social and family life. Aging people are an important resource for the development of any community.

Your presence in society itself is a blessing and a cause of much respect and celebration of life. At the same time, being a senior can sometimes present challenges both for the elderly and for society. It is a well-documented fact that with age there can occur physiological changes that make this generation of people vulnerable to ailments and make them a bit more dependent on each other and on the younger generation.

In our efforts to help create a support network, we are establishing a platform thinking for the welfare of senior citizens in the North East Florida area.

Our goal is to create a customized and helpful environment to:

1) obtain and share proper healthcare information
2) provide support and suitable opportunities to get involved in the community
3) access and bring awareness of existing resources for their overall increase in health and wellness
4) foster social connections to exchange ideas and increase networking among seniors
5) bridge the gap between the younger generation and the senior community in general

We want to ensure that suitable measures are adopted to give our seniors a life of dignity, care, and support. HSNEF is introducing and hosting a "Seniors Group Meetup" at the premises that would gather & connect once a month as a starting point and discuss topics of common interest and benefit.

We also welcome sponsors to provide food at these meetings and any interested volunteers to come forward and help. For more information, please contact [email protected]
