Living Longer, Living Smarter

Planning for your future, and preparing your family for the challenges that come with it, is a smart thing to do and is a gift to your loved ones.

This two-hour provides you with tools, resources, and information to help you make choices around the lifestyle you want now and as you age.  Issues concerning your home and community, your health, and how to pay for long term care are covered.  A significant part of the program is spent discussing the legal documents and instructions you can prepare should you need others to make decisions for you.
