FREE! Creative Senior Connections with Family Service
Looking for a supportive atmosphere to be yourself, share stories, and express yourself creatively? Consider joining Creative Senior Connections. This monthly group will explore creative expression through writing, visual art, rhythm, movement, drama, guided meditation and more with the goal of connecting more deeply with others, with yourself, and with your inner creativity. Engaging creatively can relieve stress, lift your self-esteem, spark deep personal growth, and promote healing. Create for the joy of the process rather than for the end product. No art experience or skill required- we are all creative beings! We would love to have you in the circle.
My Plate for My Family Cooking Class
This fun class is designed for parents and guardians with children at home, and includes topics such as family meals and active, fun family time!
FREE! Matter of Balance with Family Service
Matter of Balance is designed to reduce the fear of falling and improve activity levels of older adults who have concerns about falling by helping people view falls and the fear of falling as controllable. This award-winning program helps you increase your safe activity levels and find personal, practical improvements in your environment to reduce the risk of falling. The program is based on research conducted at Boston University. Their research found that a fear of falling – because of past falls or concerns about the negative consequences of possible future falls - can lead to inactivity which can, in fact, increase the possibility of falls. Registration for this opportunity is required.
