How to stay in your home longer
The way your home is designed can make a big difference in how easily and safely you can stay in your home.
Many people are living in homes with small bathrooms, narrow hallways or doorways, steps, and other features that can become harder to manage over time. These challenges can make everyday activities more difficult and may affect your ability to stay in your home long‑term.
This workshop will help you learn how changes you can make in your home today, as well as offer guidance for paying for renovations and hiring professionals.
This webinar is part of Extension's 2026 Healthy Aging Month Webinar Series.
