BISCC chosen for Well-Being Pilot

Bainbridge Island Senior/Community Center is among ten Washington state senior centers chosen for a pilot program to help older adults assess their well-being and identify simple steps they can take to improve their lives.

James Firman, chief innovation officer and founder for BetterAge.net, will join us to describe the program’s goals and early findings.

“BetterAge benefits both individuals and organizations,” according to Firman. “It equips senior centers with valuable data to refine their programs while helping older adults make informed decisions about their well-being.”

The pilot is funded by the Washington State Department of Social and Health Services.

BetterAge offers a simple, confidential health and well-being assessment that takes just 7 to 10 minutes to complete. After answering a few questions, participants receive personalized recommendations tailored to the health areas they care about most. Participants will also be entered into a monthly drawing for a $100 gift card as a thank you for taking part.

The survey is available at https://biseniorcenter.org/BetterAge
