The AARC is calling for submissions for “Share Our Story,” an online series where seniors/older adults share favorite family memories. Staying connected with our families is so important during this "Stay Home, Work Safe" Order that we would love to share stories, recipes, and memories that inspire us during this time. Every other week, the AARC will pose a topic and ask seniors/older adults to submit a photo with a short caption or a short story. Click here to learn more.
