Council on Aging Celebrates National Senior Center Month
Happy National Senior Center Month! This September, the Cambridge Council on Aging joins the National Council on Aging and hundreds of Senior Centers across the country in celebrating how Senior Centers support and empower older adults. This year’s theme is “Powering Possibilities: Flip the Script,” inviting us to challenge outdated perceptions of aging and acknowledge the dynamic role that Senior Centers play in fostering creativity, connection, purpose, and resilience in later life.
Community IRL (Valente)
Do you feel overcommitted but under connected? Over the course of this workshop we'll come together to learn, discuss, brainstorm, and provide blueprints for building deeper purpose and fostering belonging in our community. Whether you’re a student, organizer, young professional, or just someone who feels powerless, this is the place for you. We believe community is resistance. Come for conversation, snacks, and a sense of shared purpose irl.
Registration helpful.
