For Immediate Release
March 25, 2010

The Michigan Commission on Services to the Aging is pleased to announce that it approved recognition for the Wayne County Elder Friendly-Livable Community Leadership Team Application for recognition of their elder friendly community assessment of the City of Inkster at the January 15, 2010 meeting of the Commission. The Community for a Lifetime (CFL) Review Panel noted the following strengths of your assessment:

Inkster is working to establish a new Senior Wellness Center
Significant improvements are underway on streets, sidewalks and lighting infrastructure
A senior millage supports senior services and parks and recreation
A leadership development program in which retirees provide retraining to citizens seeking employment
The Community offers several festivals and celebrations honoring the history, cultural heritage and contributions of the city.

The Michigan Commission on Services to the Aging and the State Advisory Council on Aging established a CFL recognition program in January of 2007. The purpose of this program is to support and recognize community efforts to conduct an assessment or initiate an improvement that helps to make that community more elder friendly or livable for all ages.

On behalf of the Commission on Services to the Aging and the State Advisory Council on Aging, we would like to congratulate your team for this accomplishment. Please accept our sincere appreciation for the work you have done to improve life for older adults in your community and best wishes for continued success in future improvement efforts.
