YMCA Offers Community Presentations During Older Adults Month
Union, NJ, May 08, 2018 --(PR.com)-- The Gateway Family YMCA is hosting a series of free HealthEASE community presentations during Older Adults Month this May. The HealthEASE educations series will be offered each Wednesday in May from 1:30-2:30pm at The Gateway Family YMCA – Wellness Center Branch, 1000 Galloping Hill Rd, Union. No registration is required, however all non-members need to provide a valid government ID to enter the facility.
HealthEASE topics include: May 9 – Keep Your Mind Sharp, May 16 – Be Wise About Your Medications, May 23 – Serving Up Good Nutrition, May 30 – Move to Get F.I.T. The HealthEASE educational series was developed by the NJ Institute for Successful Aging and is sponsored by the NJ Department of Health and Senior Services.
Across the country, older Americans – a rapidly growing population – are taking part in activities that promote wellness and social connection. They are sharing their wisdom and experience with future generations, and they are giving back to make enrich their communities. They’re working and volunteering, mentoring and learning, leading and engaging.
For 55 years, Older Americans Month (OAM) has been observed to recognize older Americans and their contributions to our communities. Led by the Administration for Community Living’s Administration on Aging, every May offers opportunity to hear from, support, and celebrate our nation’s elders. This year’s OAM theme, “Engage at Every Age,” emphasizes the importance of being active and involved, no matter where or when you are in life. You are never too old (or too young) to participate in activities that can enrich your physical, mental, and emotion well-being.
