WellWise Services Area Agency on Aging will host a focus group in Lenawee County on April 28, offering residents an opportunity to share their experiences and needs related to aging services.

The event aims to gather input from older adults, caregivers, family members, and community members in order to help guide funding decisions for essential services. These include meals, caregiver support, transportation, wellness programs, and other resources that impact the local aging population.

The focus group is scheduled for Wednesday, May 20 at 10:30 AM at the Adrian Senior Center located at 327 Erie St., Adrian. Organizers say this session is intended not just as a meeting but as a platform for individuals connected with aging services to voice their stories and ideas.

“Your perspective matters. This is a great way to share your experiences and help shape services that impact our aging population,” organizers said in the announcement. They encourage anyone interested—whether an older adult or someone who supports them—to participate in the discussion.

Those seeking more information are asked to contact Lori at WellWise by calling 517-740-2260. A printable flyer with additional details is also available.
