Free seminar to address multi-generational living

Advertiser Staff

Graham Builders is holding a free seminar May 31 on how to make homes "comfortable and safe" for multiple generations living under the same roof.

"This is especially pertinent in Hawaii where our culture embraces multi-generational living," the company said in a news release.

The company cited statistics, such has Hawai'i's aging population, rising nursing care costs, and the fact that most homes were not built to accommodate older adults. The seminar will cover modifications that can be made to homes to address mobility and safety issues, the company said.

The seminar is scheduled for 1:30 pm. to 3 p.m. in the Kaka'ako Meeting Room of Ward Warehouse. To reserve a space, call 593-2808 ext. 114, or e-mail bonnie@grahambuilders.com.
