This is an educational class highlighting the importance of knowing when you can sign up for Medicare in order to get the most of your Medicare benefits. Learn how or why you can change your existing plan to better meet your specific needs.

The first class will cover the 4 parts of Medicare: Part A-Hospital Care, Part B-Medical Care, Part C-Medicare Advantage, and Part D-Medicare Prescription Drug Coverage Plans.

The second session will cover HMO, PPO, and Supplemental/Medigap plans and how to decipher your medical bills.

Constance Malaambo, R.N., who worked in the Emergency Department for over 30 years will now take you through the process of completing your Healthcare Directive. It is important to understand your options for medical treatment; our choices on exactly what we want; choosing someone to speak for you if needed. We plan our funerals. But the act of dying and how this may occur is up to us and our gift to our loved ones. Please join me in creating this gift. 

NOTE:  NOVEMBER 11TH IS A HOLIDAY.  CAMPUS IS CLOSED

This class will cover essential investing and opportunities in a rapidly changing economy. We will address the principals of selecting stocks, bonds, and other investments, with a focus on using investment income to fund retirement. We will explore public and private markets (private equity, private credit and hedge funds) and discuss if these investments are right for your goals. Learn how to read financial statements, to translate confusing financial jargon, and view the evolving world of crypto currency (Bitcoin, Ethereum, etc.).

Time will be allotted each session for questions and answers. No products or services are sold, endorsed, or marketed.

During retirement, many of us seek greater meaning in health, work, relationships, community, learning, creativity, or spirituality, yet the path forward often feels uncertain. This workshop offers an opportunity to reflect on what matters most, and intentionally shape your next chapter. Drawing on behavioral science research, we explore meaning, purpose, resilience, mindset, and habits, and apply these ideas to your life. Through guided reflection, creative exercises, peer collaboration, and a simple online interactive workbook that supports iterative reflection, you will gain new perspectives, clarify what gives your life meaning in retirement, and define achievable goals. You will leave with practical strategies to launch your next chapter, overcome barriers, and an accountability group to support continued progress momentum.
