The village concept is spreading. Actually, the re-invention of the village. There's nothing new about neighbors helping neighbors and with the help of the internet neighbors don't even have to be in close proximity.
A short while ago I attended a preliminary meeting to explore the level of interest in forming a "cluster" of the East Rock Village in Orange. Responsibility for one's own personal independence as we get older starts with us. You can join or form a village for any one of wide range of reasons that will enhance your independence - volunteerism, social opportunity, emergency assistance, education, . . and make use of the others as wants and needs arise.
Look for villages near you and learn how you can benefit.
