I would like to thank all of the attendees and vendors who made the 11th Annual State
Representative Jim Abeler Senior Fair a great success. Being able to interact and converse with our community’s seniors is very valuable to me, and I take to heart your views and concerns.
It was great to see how many people connected with community service providers including Meals on Wheels, Anoka County Housing, and the Anoka County Older Worker Program. These organizations help our community’s seniors stay in their own homes longer, find health care support, get meals delivered, find respite care for their caregiver, and much more.
With each senior fair, I learn more about the great people in our community and reaffirm the responsibility and opportunity that comes with holding elected office. While serving our community and connecting with the people I represent, it is a privilege to work together for the benefit of all.
Below is a list of the resources in Anoka County and the state of Minnesota who can help you, a family member, or a friend.
