Livable communities event to drive community change to occur next week

WV Forward's research scholar Priscila Santos has been invited by AARP to join hundreds of elected officials, local leaders and community advocates from across the country at the 2018 AARP Livable Communities National Conference in Charlotte next week. Focused on "Sustaining the Momentum: Engaging People, Partners and Policy Makers," attendees will hear from livability experts, connect with peers who are driving community change and visit innovative projects and programs in and around Charlotte. WV Forward is a proud partner with AARP, as we look forward to working together and coordinating more projects in 2019 to make West Virginia communities a great place for people of all ages to live, work, raise their families and retire.
