By participating in this program, you will:
• Make and maintain small but impactful changes in your health behaviors, financial well-being and enrichment in later life.
• Meet new friends, provide support and encouragement to your peers, and become more involved in your community.
The program starts on Tuesday, April 6, and meets on Tuesdays, 1–2:30 p.m., for 10 consecutive weeks, with a graduation event to follow.
Classes will meet virtually, using the Zoom meeting platform.
An invitation link will be provided after you register.
