Aging often comes with lifestyle adjustments for you and your family. The programs listed below have been specifically designed to benefit seniors in the 28th Assembly District. This information will empower you to make informed decisions regarding services you may require. It will help you deal with often complicated bureaucracy that can be difficult to navigate. If there is any way that I can further assist you in dealing with government agencies, please don’t hesitate to contact me. It is a pleasure to serve you.
