The Oregon Department of Human Services (ODHS) joined with community centers and partners in Klamath and Lake counties to co-host two fun, informational resource fairs that are tailored for older adults. The two free events are open to everyone. They will feature speakers, activities, giveaways, information and resource booths as well as lunch.

In coordination with the ODHS Office of Aging and People with Disabilities (APD), including the APD Adult Protective Services program, the events are being hosted by the Klamath and Lake Counties Council on Aging, the Klamath Basin Senior Citizens’ Center, Lake County Senior Center and other community partner agencies. Information provided will include tips on how to avoid the latest scams in recognition of World Elder Abuse Awareness Day in June.
