Boston Seniority Magazine
We've been publishing Boston Seniority Magazine for more than 40 years. We cover topics of interest to older Bostonians. These include news, feature stories, resources, and upcoming events.
From this issue:
And just like that, it’s summer in the city! The flowers are in full bloom, the sun is shining, and every neighborhood is buzzing with life as residents of all ages get outside to enjoy the weather.
Baby Mira and I had so much fun celebrating Older Americans Month with so many of you in May—and I want to thank all of you who came out to our neighborhood Coffee Hours to ask questions, share your perspective, and just say hello!
June is Pride month, and we’re celebrating the joy and resilience of our older LGBTQ+ residents, your accomplishments, and your significant contributions to our culture and community here in Boston. Inside this issue, we meet staff and residents of The Pryde in Hyde Park—the fi rst dedicated LGBTQ+ senior housing community in Boston. Age Strong partner Ethos shares how they provide support services to the LGBTQ+ community, and we hear more from Boston’s Transportation Department about the important work they do across the city.
June also brings World Elder Abuse Day; The Longest Day/Memory Sunday, raising awareness of Alzheimer’s Disease and all those impacted by it; and Juneteenth—a day when we reflect on, and celebrate, the last enslaved people in the U.S. gaining their freedom.
I hope you’ll make the most of the sunlight and participate in the many Age Strong programs being offered across the city this summer—
from wellness activities and classes to games and social events.
Looking forward to seeing you out in community!
Michelle Wu
Mayor of Boston
