Trumbull Dems: Be There for the Seniors

How effectively are we helping our large and growing senior population fight ailments of age, isolation and inactivity? Are our Senior Center programs meeting the needs of our seniors? How do these programs compare with those of neighboring towns? Does our Senior Center measure up?

Answers to these and other questions comprise the Democrats New Vision for Trumbull’s Seniors. As First Selectman, Martha Jankovic-Mark will name a citizens’ committee to develop the Vision. The committee will develop a roadmap for the future, including recommendations for program revisions and for changes to the current facility or for its replacement. An essential element will be capital and operating projections to help determine the Vision’s feasibility.

Democrats will also recommend financial assistance for our seniors as follows:
