Region 2 Area Agency on Aging announces its 3rd Annual Safe Haven Benefit will be held at 4 p.m. on June 17 during World Elder Abuse Prevention Week. Due to COVID-19, the event will be held virtually via Zoom.

Donations help provide such services as temporary emergency shelter, food, clothing, emergency financial assistance, and move-in costs for permanent housing. Safe Haven has served 99 participants since 2017.
Donations can be made at www.r2aaa.net; indicate your donation is for Safe Haven in the comment box.
