Learn about the aging process and how to make healthy lifestyle choices.
Celebrate this exciting stage of life and all the benefits that come with it.
Discuss risk factors and behaviors older adults should avoid to stay healthy.
Examine how alcohol, prescription medications and over-the-counter medications affect seniors differently and how they can avoid problems.
