Program: Come learn more about our host, St. Paul’s Senior Services. St. Paul’s has been caring for San Diego seniors since 1960. With the changing needs of today’s older adults, St. Paul’s services have expanded to bring innovative choices to those seeking resources for active retirement living, personal care, memory support, and medical oversight. In addition, hear about exciting activity and volunteer opportunities within our communities, programs and services.

Our second presenter, Joaquin Anguera will be expanding on the topic, “Celebrating Aging.” Joaquin worked at Aging and Independence Services for 30 years and then went on to teach Gerontology at SDSU for 15 years. He is now a Governor-appointed member of the California Commission on Aging.

Healthy aging and longevity are major accomplishments of our 21st century. Our average life expectancy at birth is now 80 years; in 1900 it was only 47. On the other hand, many are questioning whether these additional years are as fulfilling and satisfying as they can be. National aging organizations are talking about the need to “reframe aging” so that everyone in our society – young and old alike – realize the potential of this stage of life.
