Thrive West Central invites residents of all ages to participate in a series of community feedback sessions to discuss the opportunities and challenges facing older adults in the region.
The sessions are part of the planning process for the 2026-27 Area Plan required by the Indiana Division of Aging. Community input will help shape policies, programs and services that support older adults in West Central Indiana. Thrive serves as the Area Agency on Aging for Vigo, Clay, Vermillion, Parke, Putnam and Sullivan counties.
“These sessions are a valuable opportunity for residents to voice their perspectives and help us build a stronger, more supportive environment for aging adults,” said Amy Schorr, Thrive’s Dementia Outreach Specialist and coordinator of the events. “We welcome feedback from people of all ages and backgrounds.”
