Together for Women: A Lifebridge Conversation
Aging with Dignity
“Together for Women” is an annual event that raises awareness about the unique struggles women experiencing homelessness and financial insecurity face. Attendees will see how Lifebridge North Shore supports their journeys toward stability, hope, and dignity, with opportunities to donate and make a difference in their community.
Every year, we invite a panel of experts and women with lived experience to share their stories with attendees. This year’s theme, “Aging with Dignity” will focus on elderly women facing homelessness — those with complex health needs, those whose fixed incomes can’t keep up with the rising cost of living, or simply those who cannot access the bunk beds or stairs commonly found in shelters.
According to recent studies, homelessness in the Greater Boston Area rose by 67% between 2023 and 2024, and older adults at risk of homelessness is set to triple nationally by 2030. Now is the time to build community and supports that ensure everyone can age with dignity.
