Utilizing Senior Centers in the Aging Process with Julie Eddings

Do you know all the benefits a senior center can provide?

Senior centers, like the one in Hamburg, MI, are the very best thing that we can offer to combat loneliness. There’s a lot of talk right now about how loneliness is now public health enemy number one. At senior centers, you can come and meet like-minded people, people who are in the same situations as you are.

It gives you something to get you out of the house, and provides a place that’s fun and engaging to go.
