The Aging and Disability Resource Center (ADRC) of St. Croix County invites older adults, caregivers, and family members to attend its first Annual ADRC Expo on Wednesday, October 21, 2026, at Ready Randy's in New Richmond. The afternoon event is designed to help older adults connect with trusted information, local services, and community resources that support healthy, independent living.
Michael Domke, Director of the Wisconsin Bureau of Consumer Protection, will present on scams and fraud impacting older adults. Attendees will learn about common scams, steps they can take to protect themselves, and what to do if they become a victim of fraud.

Genevieve Palazzolo, Public Health Strategist, and Mary Weinke, Public Health Emergency Preparedness Program Specialist, will share how St. Croix County Public Health programs and services can help individuals stay healthy, safe, and independent as they age.
The presentation will highlight the many ways Public Health supports the health and well-being of individuals and communities, including information about carbon monoxide awareness and steps you can take to stay safe in your home.
