Aging Your Way: Making the Right Decisions for Your Best Senior Life

Wednesday, November 13 @ 9:30 am 3:30 pm

Have you started getting AARP Magazine (or the many requests to join AARP)? Are you eligible for senior discounts at McDonalds, movie theaters, and Silver Diner? Have you recently become an empty nester? Every wonder about the Jewish take on end-of-life care? If you answered yes to any of these questions, then this workshop series could be right up your alley!

Aging Your Way is a full-day workshop designed to help seniors (and their adult children) create a roadmap for the future. Through a one-day workshop featuring 6 professional experts on relevant topics, and an accompanying workbook, participants will be well-informed and able to answer key questions to better navigate their individual wants, needs, and circumstances. In a group of people dealing with the same questions, but possibly finding different solutions, we will learn, discuss, and build community.

Be an active participant in your healthy aging. If you are ready to plan for your next stage of life, then register now!
