For many aging adults in DuPage County, retirement savings may not be able to cover rising costs over a long life expectancy – especially the cost of housing. It’s time to get creative about housing options that help seniors stretch their retirement savings as far as possible. Senior Home Sharing is a leader in providing sustainable, affordable alternatives for senior living. Home sharing brings aging adults together as housemates to live independently and remain active within their communities. It’s a cost-saving option — with major potential health benefits. Recent studies have shown that social isolation among seniors takes a toll on physical and emotional health. Home sharing provides companionship and social engagement, along with peace of mind for seniors who know that someone’s nearby to lend a hand if needed. Better health and better quality of life are our goal.
