Age-Friendly Oxford

Age-Friendly Oxford 

Our vision is an inclusive livable community with housing, transportation, social opportunities, and services that support the well-being of citizens of all ages.

Age-Friendly Oxford (AFO) is a community improvement initiative working to create livability in the greater Oxford area, which includes the surrounding townships that make up the Talawanda school district (Hanover, Milford, Oxford, Reily). It is based on the World Health Organization’s (WHO) Global Age-Friendly Cities Project and AARP’s Network of Age-Friendly States and Communities

The leadership of AFO is composed of three “pillar” organizations that work together to realize AFO’s vision for an inclusive livable community with housing, transportation, social opportunities, and services that support the well-being of citizens of all ages.
