Program Space 1

AR Aging Wiser brings monthly workshops to help Arkansans with education and resources for getting older.

Join us at the Faulkner County Library on the last Wednesday of the month (schedule may change due to holidays) to learn about different issues impacting Arkansans as they age. Each month will feature a different speaker on topics such as Social Security, Geriatric mental health, Dietician/ diabetes management, Medicare, Retirement finances, Dementia awareness, senior caregiver support, etc.

--

Think AARP is just for retirees? Or the only reason to join are discounts? Associate State Director of Communications and Outreach Mandy Shoptaw joins us to bust some common AARP myths and tell you how AARP Arkansas is working for people 50-plus and their families across the state. Snacks and drinks provided.

--

Arkansas Aging Wiser represents a network of professionals working to bridge connections to better serve our aging neighbors and their caregivers through seminars, classes, and community events.

This is a FREE event and is open to the public.
