The Department of Elder Affairs Communities for a Lifetime announces a public meeting to which all persons are invited.
DATE AND TIME: Wednesday, March 12, 2014, 9:30 a.m. – 11:30 a.m., EST
PLACE: The Pines of Sarasota, Cullers Hall, 1501 N. Orange Ave., Sarasota, FL 34236
GENERAL SUBJECT MATTER TO BE CONSIDERED: The purpose of the workshop is to discuss the benefits of senior zones. Senior zones raise a driver’s awareness that they are entering an area where they need to exercise additional caution.

Two additional workshops are planned in March 2014 for Broward and Indian River counties.
