 Did you know the average Stanford employee is 47 years old? Are you aware that every 7.5 seconds a "boomer" turns 50? In 2008, 1.3 boomers cared for an aging parent and that number is steadily increasing. The demand for information on resources for aging at Stanford continues to rise as WorkLife strives to provide programs and resources to support its community. This new year, in January 2012, we are bringing back our Primetime Fair to Tresidder to provide resources and Brown Bags Seminars on aging well.There is no age requirement to attend the fair. In fact, Home Instead, a local senior home care agency, uses the "40-70 rule."  The 40-70 Rule guide advises,"that if you are 40, or your parents are 70, it's time to start talking -- at least about certain senior topics ("The 40-70 Rule: A Guide to Conversation Starters)."  A Brown Bag on this topic will be offered at the PrimeTime Fair.
