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.

Boston seniority Magazine December 2023 Cover

FROM THIS ISSUE:

"As we wind down in 2023 and head into the New Year, we want all of our older residents to start off 2024 strong!

Inside you’ll learn about Boston’s Age Strong Commission, and all the programs and services they offer Boston’s older residents. These include health insurance assessments by trained SHINE counselors and help applying for food resources, fuel assistance, and other government programs. Age Strong also offers free rides to medical appointments in Boston on the Age Strong Shuttle, discounted taxi coupons, and lots of free activities (in-person and online) to stay socially engaged, especially during the winter months, when we tend to stay inside more.

This December issue also features information on becoming an Age Strong property tax work-off volunteer, winter safety tips, and information on how to avoid scams.

I hope you enjoy the holiday season with family, friends, and loved ones."

— Mayor Michelle Wu
