At every age, there are things that one must face in life. Some are within one’s control, others are not. With numerous decisions and recent happenings that can have an impact on various age groups, the best way to stay on top of them is to be aware. So, this month, Princeton Perspectives is delving into them in the issue Changes That Can Have a Strong Impact on Your Life.
Celebrating a big anniversary or pushing yourself to benefit others are two things that can impact people. They’re also the topics of the two Perspectives Revisited items we’re updating you on this month. Read below to see what’s happening.

There have been some changes this year when it comes to medical access, and it’s important that everyone is aware. Pregnant? Need a Doctor?

At the other end of the life cycle, those that are aging are often tasked with figuring out how and where to live.

As the new school year begins, and fall starts to settle in, we hope that you all enjoyed the summer and are ready to look ahead. Our October issue, as always, will provide you with all the details you need to know to be educated and informed come election day. There are many local and state positions that are open this year, and the winning candidates could have a huge impact on the future of Princeton and New Jersey.
