declinist view of aging has created negative stereotypes that fail to recognize
that Elders have their own noble purpose in society. When we are able to
break away from the view of seeing aging as decline and Elders as broken adults,
we can begin to discover a new old age. This new old age is based on the
belief and promise of developmental aging, a stage where we continue to grow and
develop in many different ways. Join international speaker, Nancy Fox, as
together we begin to create a new map of aging that will lead us to a world in
which we can reap the rich rewards that come with a new old

Are you interested in meeting regularly with peers for education and support?
Low-vision education and support groups can give you the opportunity to learn techniques for living with low vision and provide meaningful social opportunities with others.
In addition, we have people available to tutor you one-on-one using low-vision software, cooking techniques, or home management. So please call me to learn more or to sign up for a group.
Call Lynda at (970) 352-8682.
