Description

Kari Bachman, Senior Services Director at the Warford Activity Center, has spent her career helping people thrive. From serving in the Peace Corps to leading camps and nonprofit organizations across the country, her work has always centered on building connections, strengthening communities, and supporting those who need it most.

Today, that mission continues through her leadership at Warford, where she and her team are creating opportunities for Amarillo's older adults to stay engaged, connected, and supported. Kari shares how Warford partners with organizations, volunteers, and neighbors across the community to ensure seniors feel valued and cared for, while honoring the dignity and wisdom that come with aging.

In this conversation, we explore what it means to age with dignity, why communities should prioritize caring for older adults, and the lessons we can learn when we take the time to listen to those who have spent decades building the world around us.
