We've been publishing Boston Seniority magazine for more than 40 years. We cover topics of interest to older Bostonians. These include news, feature stories, resources, and upcoming events.

BSM october 2024 cover

FROM THIS ISSUE:

"Hello Boston!

As we welcome October, we continue celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month, as well as raise awareness for National Breast Cancer Month, and Blind Americans’ Equality Day. 

Inside you’ll learn about Age Strong’s many volunteer opportunities, including our partnership with AmeriCorps Seniors, as well as ways for Boston’s homeowners to save money on property taxes by volunteering with city departments. 

October also marks the beginning of the annual Medicare Open Enrollment period, when we encourage all recipients to meet with a trained counselor to assess your current health coverage as well as prescription drug costs. Age Strong, along with Boston Public Health Commission, Ethos, and MA’s Executive Office of Elder Affairs will host 15 in-person Open Enrollment events across Boston neighborhoods. Call Age Strong at 617-635-4366 to schedule your appointment  and see if you can save money. 

Looking forward to seeing you out in community,"

Michelle Wu
Mayor of Boston
