Milwaukee County Aging Services Empowering safe, healthy and meaningful lives for older adults in our community

The Milwaukee County Aging & Disabilities Services offers information to the public related to programs, resources, opportunities, supports, and services for adults with disabilities and older adults. We aim to promote racial and health equity by treating those we serve with dignity and respect and by keeping the focus on the individual at the center. Our vision is for older adults, persons with differing abilities, and their families to have the support needed to remain as independent as possible, with active participation in the community and, to experience life in an inclusive and meaningful way.

Treat yourself to something better than candy this 🎃Halloween —safety, confidence, and independence!
There are plenty of ways to treat yourself this season:
🔸Use assistive devices like canes or grab bars to support yourself
🔸 Build strength, balance, and community through regular exercise
🔸 Schedule a vision check
🔸 Wear supportive, well-fitting shoes
🔸 Attend a fall prevention workshop (like Stepping On, to learn practical strategies for staying independent)
The best 🎃Halloween treat is being able to do the things you love all year long.
