Aging Well Month Kick-Off
Our virtual Aging Well Month Kick-Off, will also be held on May 3 from 1 to 2 pm and also via Zoom.
The Aging Well Month Kick- Off will be held on May 3 from 1 to 2 pm and all older adults are invited. This celebration will feature speaker Robyn Golden, a leader in the community with over 30 years of experience in the field of mental health and care coordination for older adults. She will speak about the social isolation during COVID-19. The 2020 Community GEMs will be recognized, as we were not able to recognize them last year. We will provide more information about the Calendar of Events, our Aging Well Neighborhood Program. To celebrate our 50th Anniversary, participants will also have the chance to win various prizes--from Aging Care Connections 50th Anniversary items to restaurant gift cards. The first 50 participants will get an Aging Care Connections 50th Anniversary item!
