Our May 23rd Housing Event
We had a great turnout (close to 100) at our May 23, 2018 Housing Workshop. There were presentations by town staff and developers, and it was a very informative and well received event!

​​Our Focus Goals: 

Our goal: keeping seniors at all income/asset levels in Fairfield and CT; this is so important to everyone's finances.  This requires addressing tax and cost of living burdens affecting our senior community.
  • ​ Finding senior-friendly housing solutions 
  • Evaluating State, Federal and Town programs that affect seniors   
  •  Advocating for change through our Legislative reps and State  leaders
  • Networking with senior/taxpayer groups in other towns
  • Delivering a series of small victories – a signal that things will get better
  • Mobilizing seniors, listening to their concerns, informing them of progress  
FSA is an advocate for Bigelow (Senior) Center programs and activities

​Our Mission

Make Fairfield an attractive town for older adults: an affordable, desirable, vibrant, ​engaged community. This makes our community - and our finances - better.

Our Core Values

  • Seniors are important to our town: to its economy, diversity, sense of community.
  • FSA is non-partisan and represents all Fairfielders. 
  • FSA is inclusive: No age restrictions, all points of view considered.​​
Everyone: regardless of your situation or plans, please take our senior housing/living survey (see link above).
