The tip of the Iceberg! Food, clothing and shelter… Seniors are often in need of help. A major issue is the need for affordable, quality housing. 

The monthly presentation of the Rath Senior ConNEXTions Center will address this vital need. Earnest Faust, Jr. will present information from the Lakeland Housing Authority. 

Earnest is always available to assist with giving answers for housing needs. He will further discuss the amount of available housing in relation to the overwhelming need.
