Online communities are designed to bring senior center professionals who share an interest, need, situation or population. Select a group that aligns with your specific interests or needs. If you don’t see a group for you, suggest one!
Register: Select the community meeting you want to join from the agenda.
Engage: Attend meetings, start contributing to discussions, ask questions, and connect with your peers. The more active you are, the more you'll benefit from this community.
Share Your Wisdom: Your unique experiences and insights are what make these groups valuable. Don't hesitate to share your knowledge and support your colleagues.
