Booths will offer balance testing, home safety information, details on legislation affecting seniors, wellness seminars and material on community resources available to seniors and caregivers. Robert MacLaughlin, chief deputy director of the California Department of Aging, will give opening remarks. A survey conducted in the fall helped shape the longevity fair and formed the topics for a series of monthly informational radio spots on Capital Public Radio. Nationwide, nearly 25 percent of households are involved in caring for an older person. Parking for the longevity fair is free.
Permits are available at the information booths at each end of campus.
