Protecting Healthcare, Expanding Housing Access, and Strengthening Community Support for Baltimore County Seniors

Every person deserves to age with dignity, stability, and the support of their community. But too often, seniors face barriers to healthcare, housing, transportation, and connection—leaving many feeling isolated or struggling to stay in the homes and neighborhoods they love.

Baltimore County must be a place where people of all ages can thrive.

This means real action, not lip service. It means standing up for our seniors—protecting the programs they depend on, expanding the resources they need, and making sure our communities work for everyone.

Nick’s Plan to Support Seniors and Build an Age-Friendly Baltimore County:

• Protect and expand access to healthcare—standing firm against cuts to Medicare and Medicaid, and ensuring affordable, high-quality care, from home health services to mental health support.
• Invest in safe, affordable housing for aging in place—including more senior living options, diverse housing choices, and support for the BCAUSE home modification program to help residents stay safely in their homes.
• Expand mobility and transportation options—growing CountyRide service with evening and weekend hours, improving walkable infrastructure, and supporting transit projects like the Red Line and QuickLink 40 to keep seniors connected and independent.
• Strengthen community and connection—fighting social isolation by expanding senior center programs, promoting digital literacy, and making sure information is clear, accessible, and easy to find.

Aging with dignity shouldn’t be the exception. With Nick’s leadership, we can build a Baltimore County where our seniors are supported, respected, and connected—because a county that works for our oldest residents is a county that works for all of us.
