Aging in place is not inevitable; it requires planning and purpose. Join us for our Aging in Place, Living Your Best Life @ Home speaker series where Dr. Christine Ritchie will present on how to purposefully age by creating habits of activity, habits of connection, and habits of curiosity and learning. She will connect these ideas to well-being in later life. It is NEVER too late to try something new and become a new, adapted version of who you are.
