Senior Services: Oak Harbor for older adults with Liz Lange

In this episode of Whidbey Island Living, Liz Lange, the Director of Senior Services for the City of Oak Harbor, joins us to discuss the three major challenges facing seniors today: isolation and loneliness, the risk of falling, and more. Liz oversees The Center, a vital resource for adults 50 and older, providing everything from educational programs and fitness classes to social events and travel opportunities.

This episode is a must-listen for everyone—whether you’re a senior or have loved ones who are aging. The issues of isolation and loneliness are all too real, but there are solutions. Liz highlights the ways The Center is helping seniors stay active, engaged, and connected right here in our community.
