FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Currently, there is not a fee for this 3 week program.
Yes, Aging Solo is appropriate even for those who have family members. Sometimes our family members are not equipped to assist us as we are aging, or our spouse is older and we anticipate a time when they will no longer be able to care for us.
TESTIMONIALS
Everyone is searching for answers and Amazing Place provides you with great resources. As a retired financial planner, I want to plan for the future as much as possible. That’s why I took the Aging Solo class. It pointed out gaps that I can fix to prepare as best as possible for the future. I know I can count on Amazing Place when I need help.
I attended the Aging Solo Class conducted by Katherine Christie, Community & Faith Resource Coordinator of Amazing Place and it was an inspiration! She covered this sensitive topic with insight and compassion, and now I have more tools on how to prepare for making this natural process easier and less stressful. I highly recommend taking this class!
