We are committed to making life a little less lonely for isolated seniors.
One of the ways that we want to help is to get seniors comfortable with basic technology. We want to help you to stay in touch with family and friends, access programs and services available online, and find information quickly and efficiently. Our weekly meetings, this web site, and our newsletters are there to help you feel more connected to your community, and give you a place to learn & have fun at the same time. Remember it's FREE, there are never any charges or cost to you to be a Switched-on Senior! |

Topic: Senior Safety At our upcoming Switched On Seniors session, CHATS will be joining us to speak about Senior Safety and to share practical information that can help older adults feel more confident, informed, and protected in everyday life. The presentation will cover helpful safety tips, ways to recognize concerning situations, and steps seniors can take to stay safe at home, in the community, and when approached by others. It will also be a chance to learn about supports and resources that may be available if concerns ever arise. This talk is meant to be informative, reassuring, and empowering. Seniors can expect a friendly presentation with useful advice, real-life examples, and guidance that supports independence and peace of mind. Whether you are looking for new safety reminders or simply want to learn more about community support services, this will be a valuable and worthwhile session. **Added Bonus: Special Lunch Event (this Thursday) After 'Switched on Seniors,' please join St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church for their 'Lunch and Mingle' on Thursday, May 7th, @ 11:30 a.m. A basket will be available for monetary donations.
