About Roadmap for Aging

Our Mission

Roadmap for Aging helps residents of Hilltop at Inspiration plan ahead for the decisions that come with getting older. Each month we bring in experts and fellow residents to share practical, straightforward information so we can make choices on our own terms, and make things easier for the people we love.

What We Cover

Our talks and expert panels cover topics including:

  • Finances: retirement income, making your money last, reverse mortgages, and taxes
  • Legal & Estate Planning: wills and trusts, powers of attorney, probate, and advance directives
  • Housing & Real Estate: aging in place, remodeling, downsizing, moving, and senior living options
  • Health: brain health, dementia, fall prevention, and hospice and palliative care
  • Medicare: open enrollment and plan changes
  • Caregiving: in-home care, family caregivers, and benefits such as VA Aid and Attendance
  • Safety: frauds and scams, emergency preparedness, and home safety
  • End-of-Life Planning: emergency binders, funeral preplanning, and conversations that matter

When & Where

We usually meet on the third Thursday of the month, 10:00–11:30 AM, in the Hilltop Clubhouse Multi-Purpose Rooms. Dates and times occasionally change, so check the home page for the next meeting. Roadmap for Aging has been meeting since July 2022.
