I have worked as a geriatric social worker and am a long time <br /> believer in the connection of maintaining physical and mental activities as well as connection to <br /> the larger community to help people age with integrity and dignity. Recently retiring as a high <br /> school teacher, I clearly see the importance of maintaining ties to a larger community to lessen <br /> the isolation created with retirement. I would like the opportunity to bring my ideas to a larger <br /> group in order to be more inclusive of the aging population. <br /> Reasons for wanting to serve on this board: <br /> Conflict of Interest: <br /> Hillsborough Planning Board <br /> Background, education and experience relevant to this board: <br /> As a life long walker and cyclist, I would be able to help make this community plan for these as <br /> well as possible expanded public transportation as Hillsborough grows. <br /> Reasons for wanting to serve on this board: <br /> Conflict of Interest: <br /> Supplemental Questions: <br />
