Senior Housing Options Expo and other events in Naperville
The upcoming Senior Housing Options Expo or SHOE event on April 11 and 12 at Grace Pointe Church in Naperville offers information on housing options for seniors and their families. “Maybe your parents are aging, and you’re looking for those next steps,” Says board vice president Julie Smith. “But what are the next steps? Because the system is very confusing. So hopefully, we can provide some education.”
Other upcoming programs include a car care clinic, where seniors can get their vehicles checked out, and the Healthy Wealthy & Wise Senior Conference. Topics for the conference vary from year to year and can include things like diabetes care or mental health issues.
