I am 55+, but my companion isn't. Can they join?

"Absolutely! The term '55 and older' serves as a general guideline rather than a strict requirement. This means that while many programs, communities, or services may target individuals who are 55 years of age and above, they often remain flexible in their eligibility criteria. In practice, this can allow for younger individuals to participate under certain circumstances, such as when they are part of a household that includes someone who meets the age requirement. Therefore, it is always advisable to check specific policies or speak with a representative for clarification on age-related eligibility."
