Vancouver, Wash. - The Clark County Commission on Aging is focusing this year on healthy communities, especially for people 65 and older. Features of a community either contribute to or decrease one's ability to live independently, safely and comfortably. Places with clean air and water and access to healthful food, safe streets, parks and pedestrian-friendly neighborhoods provide an environment that contributes to better health.
The year-long focus will educate and raise awareness about how to create and maintain healthy, livable communities that benefit all ages.
