People depend on one another to flourish, regardless of their age, but the importance of meaningful engagement for seniors cannot be overemphasized. In this unprecedented time of concern that stems from a global health crisis, the need (and, in many cases, the mandate) to self-isolate and practice strict social distancing has taken a major toll on mental health for people in every category of age, gender, social status and geography. Let’s take a look at ways we can develop meaningful engagement during COVID 19 by: Identifying Triggers for Loneliness in Seniors, Helping Seniors Stay Connected, and The Role of Technology in Supporting Lonely Seniors.

This program will be presented by Liz Cornish of New Season In Life and will take place over Zoom. Register by email: library@wethersfieldlibrary.org.
