Care Partners and Cook County Higher Education are pleased to present a Lunch & Learn series designed to support aging well in Cook County! Presented on the fourth Wednesday of the month from noon to 1pm at Cook County Higher Education, these free Lunch & Learn classes feature speakers from area organizations like Age-Friendly Cook County, AARP, North Shore Health, The MN Aging Eyes Initiative, and more!
For many years Care Partners has provided support and companionship along the journey of aging in Cook County. With this initiative, we hope to help our friends and neighbors proactively address the joys and challenges of growing older with dignity, purpose – and perhaps a gentle dose of humor and camaraderie besides!
Join us online OR in person at Cook County Higher Education! Thanks to the generosity of individual donors and granting organizations, free lunch is provided for the first 25 people who register for in-person classes.
Upcoming Lunch & Learn Classes
Wednesday, November 20 – A View on Aging With Collette Pederson
NOTE: Our November Lunch & Learn will meet on the THIRD Wednesday to avoid conflicting with holidays the following week.
November is National Native American Heritage Month, and we are honored to be joined by Collette Pederson from Grand Portage. Collette will share her reflections on aging informed by a cultural perspective that values care for Elders in the home as well as Elder-supportive community programs. We hope you will join us for this last Lunch & Learn of 2024! Register here!
