Boise Becomes First City In Idaho To Join AARP's Network Of Age-Friendly Communities

As Baby Boomers grow older, urban and suburban planners are looking at new ways to afford safety and convenience for an aging population. Last month, the City of Boise joined AARP's Network of Age-Friendly Communities - municipalities committed to developing comprehensive strategies for creating safe and accessible amenities as well as fully inclusive communities. Idaho Matters speaks with Boise Parks and Recreation director, Doug Holloway, and Thomas V. Trotter, the AARP of Idaho's point person for implementing this program in the Gem State.
