What Is It?\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

The Older & Bolder EXPO is an annual free event hosted by the Carlsbad Chamber of Commerce together with the Chamber\u2019s Aging Services Committee.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

It\u2019s aimed at helping seniors, caregivers, and families explore resources, services, and ideas for living well after retirement.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Why You Should Go\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

    \n
  • For knowledge & empowerment. <\/b>The EXPO offers workshops hourly starting at around 10 AM, with topics like <\/span>real estate downsizing, Medicare insurance, legal issues, finding caregiving options, <\/span><\/i>and ways to guard against scams.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Resources in one place. <\/b>Vendors covering healthcare, housing options, insurance, financial planning, senior safety and more will be present.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Support for caregivers. <\/b>Recognizing that many attendees are or will become caregivers, the expo includes information tailored to them.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Community & connection. <\/b>It\u2019s a chance to meet others facing similar questions or transitions, learn from experts, and get a look at what supports are available locally.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    What\u2019s New This Year\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

      \n
    • The <\/span>4th annual <\/b>edition of the EXPO promises to be bigger and more inclusive. \u25cf Workshops will feature fresh topics like elder scams and fraud, plus healthy aging (both physical and mental), and aging care cost transparency.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
    • More vendor space and greater variety of exhibitors.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      Tips to Get the Most Out of It\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

        \n
      1. Arrive early. <\/b>Workshops begin around 10 AM, but getting there early gives you time to browse vendor booths before things get busy.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
      2. Plan your workshop schedule. <\/b>Since there are concurrent sessions, check which ones are most relevant and map out your plan.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n

      4. Don\u2019t forget the essentials. <\/b>Bring a notepad, water, comfortable shoes, maybe someone to share the info with (a friend, spouse, or family member).\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        Who Should Attend\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

          \n
        • Seniors <\/b>looking to plan ahead for health, financial, legal, or housing matters after retirement.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
        • Caregivers <\/b>or those caring for elderly family members.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
        • Family members <\/b>seeking to better understand senior resources in San Diego County.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
        • Professionals <\/b>or businesses working with aging populations (healthcare, financial planning, home care, elder law).<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
