Assemblyman Matt Slater (R,C–Yorktown) is pleased to announce his third annual Senior Resource Fairs, which will be held in Westchester and Putnam counties. The events are designed to help constituents connect with valuable resources for older adults, including elder-care attorneys, Medicare specialists, assisted-living facilities, telehealth services, Alzheimer’s and memory care organizations and state and county services for seniors. All seniors, caregivers and family members are welcome and encouraged to attend.

Attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions, receive personalized guidance and learn about programs specifically designed to meet the needs of older adults in the community.

“Connecting our seniors to essential services has been a great success over the past two years, and we are excited to continue this tradition,” said Slater. “Many seniors and their families are not aware of the resources available to them, which is why these fairs are so important. We look forward to another successful year and expect these events to keep growing each year.”
