2/24/2014 - Volunteers wanted to promote ‘Live Well’ sessions

The Southwestern CT Agency on Aging seeks professionals and volunteers to be trained as workshop leaders for Live Well, a nationwide evidence-based health promotion program.

Developed by Stanford University, Live Well is a community-based six-week workshop series, meeting once a week, for older adults and caregivers who want to learn ways to manage their diabetes, arthritis, lung and heart disease, anxiety, depression and any chronic pain.

Participants attend a free four day training; no prior experience is necessary. To register for the orientation scheduled to take place at Southwestern CT Agency on Aging in Bridgeport on Thursday, April 3, from 10 to 11 a.m., contact Gretchen James at 203-814-3620 or gjames@swcaa.org. The Live Well Leader Training is scheduled for April 24, 25, May 1 and 2 at the same location.
