Turner to Host Springfield Senior Fair

State Senator Doris Turner is inviting senior citizens and area residents to a resource fair aimed at supporting older adults and caregivers in the community. The event will be held on Monday, November 10, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Salvation Army of Springfield, located at 1600 E. Clear Lake Avenue.

According to Senator Turner (D-Springfield), the annual fair provides a valuable venue for seniors to access information and assistance directly from local and state service providers.

“This annual event is a great opportunity for those in the area who would like to seek resources and support for themselves or someone they know,” she said. “Events like these create a sense of community and allow us to extend a helping hand to those who need it.”

Attendees can expect to connect with a variety of health care and service professionals, as well as representatives from state and local agencies, all under one roof to address questions and concerns seniors may have.
