We’re getting AMP-ed Suffield! The Aging Mastery Program® (AMP) is designed to inform, encourage, and support older adults as they take steps to improve their lives and engage with their communities.
AMP is all about feeling better today and staying healthy for the future. Small steps can make big differences in our health and well–being. Even modest improvements can make life more fun and meaningful. It’s never too late to learn new skills and make changes. The program encourages mastery–developing behaviors across many dimensions that will lead to improved health, stronger financial security, and overall well–being.
The Aging Mastery Program is a program of the National Council on Aging and is funded in Connecticut by the Anthem Foundation. Suffield Senior Center, in collaboration with Kent Memorial Library, was selected by Connecticut Healthy Living Collective to participate in this 10-week, evidenced-based program.
By participating in this program, you will make and maintain small but impactful changes in your health behaviors, financial well-being, and enrichment in later life. You get REAL incentives and rewards for taking small steps that can improve your well-being. You will meet new friends, provide support and encouragement to your peers, and become more involved in your community.
The program runs Mondays March 4 – May 6, 12-1:30 p.m., and space is limited. The program is free and includes a light lunch. Please see detailed course outline on page 17.
