BACKGROUND / DISCUSSION
AARP is the nation’s largest nonprofit, nonpartisan organization dedicated to empowering people to choose how
they live as they age. AARP works to strengthen communities and advocate for what matters most to families -
with a focus on health security, financial stability, and personal fulfillment. The 2021 AARP Community Challenge
received 3,560 Challenge applications nationwide.
Neighborhood Services offers a variety of services and programming to promote quality neighborhoods from a
Neighborhood Grant Program to free and confidential conflict resolution services.
The grant will fund a WELL (Winterize, Energize, Lift up, and Love) resource fair and community cleanup in
October at two locations: North College and Skyline mobile home communities. The resource fair is designed to
address livability issues, engage with residents, and improve health outcomes for seniors.
Each resource fair will be a one-day event featuring a number of City and community partners, including Utilities,
Healthy Homes, the Office on Aging, Senior Access Points, and more. All activities will be conducted in
accordance with CDC, state and local health regulations.
This event is part of the education/engagement work within the City’s Mobile Home Park (MHP) enforcement
program and will support residents and MHPs in achieving voluntary compliance, as we strengthen the City’s
relationship with the parks and reduce the negative impact that the winter season can have upon this vulnerable
population.
