The ADRC would like to educate the community about prevention and wellness as we age. Studies show that as we age we are at greater risk for declining physical and mental health however there are activities that can delay this or improve our physical and mental well being. Also be sure to check out our calendar for schedule activities in the community.
Presentation topics are listed below:
- What is the ADRC?
- Falls Prevention
- Changing the Way we Age
- Keeping your Mind Sharp
If your church, business, group or organization is interested in a training or hosting a workshop please contact the ADRC today to inquire about our outreach services to the community. Call 262-638-6800 or e-mail: ADRC@goracine.org
