Boomers will ‘age differently,’ Avenidas director says

Agency seeks more space as it braces for building wave of seniors by Chris Kenrick “boot camp on aging” for Baby Boomers is under consid- eration at Avenidas as the senior services agency braces A for a spike in the area’s senior population. The downtown Palo Alto nonprofit, a gathering spot for re- tirees, fields several calls a week from entrepreneurs looking to test their startup products on real live old people. Executive Director Lisa Hendrickson said she tries to accommodate the startups whenever she can, figuring that new products and services related to aging could only help as the Baby Boom generation morphs into a Senior Boom. “This work, in whatever small way, is going to support development of some great stuff that’s going to be fun and helpful to us,” Hendrickson said. By “us” Hendrickson means herself and the rest of the Boom- ers, born between 1946 and 1964 and now turning 65 in the United States at the rate of 10,000 a day. In Palo Alto, fully one-third of the population already is 55 and older, and the proportion of elders is growing. Boomers will age differently than previous generations, pre- dicts Hendrickson, a former banker who moved to the nonprofit world in mid-career and is now pondering her next professional phase. After 15 years at the helm of Avenidas she recently announced plans to step down and spend at least the next year managing a capital campaign to upgrade and expand the agency’s facilities. The current facility — Palo Alto’s historic fire and police building on Bryant Street — is “bursting at the seams,” she said. “Baby Boomers are going to want way more choice — we always have — and we’re going to expect services to be available 6iÀV>Ê7iLiÀ
