Our proactive approach includes a national blueprint for age-friendly housing that integrates health and housing policies. I highlight two key programs: the Healthy Age Friendly Homes Program, which addresses housing support needs, and a right sizing initiative in Limerick that has seen overwhelming demand. The main takeaways for leaders are the importance of collaboration, having a clear plan, and listening to older people. I encourage you to think about one idea from this that could enhance your own community.
