Aging
Anne began her involvement with aging issues, programs and policies working with Maggie Kuhn, who founded the Gray Panthers. She says: “Maggie was the consummate mentor and was like a spiritual mother to me. I lived in shared housing with Maggie and friends, and learned all about shared housing, aging policy and how to address these huge issues with community-based solutions.
