SUMMARY:Solo Agers Thriving with Independence a Webinar with AARP
DESCRIPTION:Jill Kovalich\, Founder of SoloAgersConnect \nI am excited to be presenting the webinar Solo Agers: Thriving with Independence in collaboration with AARP Connecticut on May 6 at 7 pm EST. \nThere is a vibrant yet somewhat invisible population of 16 million across the U.S. over age 50 who are navigating life with independence and resilience\, without a spouse\, partner\, or close relatives involved in their daily lives—known as Solo Agers. \nJoin me and I explore emerging and shifting demographics that shine a light on the needs of our aging population and examine life today and in the future. We’ll unpack important factors including community support\, risks of loneliness and isolation\, and strategies for staying connected and engaged. \nThis is a free online event\, and AARP membership is not required. \nRegister directly on the AARP site with the button below.\nAbout the Presenter\nJill Kovalich is the Founder of SoloAgersConnect.com\, and informational website designed specifically for solo agers. A solo ager herself\, Jill built the website in response to a fruitless search to answer her own questions along her journey. Without a spouse or children and few family members\, her questions are shared by many other solo agers. \nWho will take care of me when I am old? \nWho should I assign to act on my behalf if I am incapacitated? \nShould I take action now to plan to remain independent and age in place? \nLearn more about Jill’s journey and listen to her podcast interviews. \n  \n \nJill plans to expand her website to provide guidance and education for those on the same path of aging solo. She intends to address issues around finance\, estate planning\, insurance\, burial planning\, solo travel\, defining purpose\, living with meaning\, developing friendships and support communities\, and finding joy.  Meanwhile\, she has launched Solo Ager Coffee Socials in Connecticut\, her home base\, for solo agers to connect socially with their local peers in a safe and welcoming environment. \n  \n \n  \nFind more information about Coffee Social on the Events Page. \nTo inquire about support starting a Coffee Social near you\, click here. \nSign up for the monthly Newsletter. \n\n\nJoin our online communities:\nFacebook public page \nFacebook private group \nInstagram \nRequest Jill as a speaker for your event. \n  \nTo register\, click the button below. \nREGISTER\nThis is a free online event\, and AARP membership is not required. \n  \n  \n  \n  \n
