Event Details

Retirement can be as stressful as it can be fun! Join PPLD and PPAAA for this Retirement Series that will provide information, resources, and fellowship to explore the many ways retirement can be challenging and enjoyable.
 

This month, join us and Dr. Sara Qualls for an engaging discussion on the importance of social connections as a senior. Social relationships are key to positive health and mental well-being, yet our social networks can easily be interrupted in later life. In addition to social isolation, friends and family may become unavailable to us due to geographic moves, illness, or other reasons. This presentation addresses the importance of having a solid social network, using it well, and how to rebuild it when needed.
