Manage episode 452935880 series 3609475
The City Council of Sausalito, California, has unanimously passed a resolution to address the growing issue of loneliness and social isolation among its senior population. With over half of the city's residents aged 55 or older, the city is committed to prioritizing their well-being by partnering with local organizations to expand support networks. Initiatives include the Pet Companion Program, which provides pet food and animatronic therapy pets, and CARSS, which delivers these resources directly to seniors, reducing social isolation and promoting companionship.
