At VillagesOKC, our mission is to create a virtual neighborhood enabling adults to learn, plan and serve with spirit and dignity. While all of these are important to successful aging, we think a key component is planning. If you plan for potential transitions- a hospital stay, a move or aging in place, you can be well prepared and you will have less anxiety about those transitions.
A great way to begin this preparation is to spend time organizing and documenting your important information and wishes. This is your ‘playbook.’ VillagesOKC has developed The GIFT- an interactive workshop guiding participants through 12 key areas most effected by life transitions. Local guest professionals add to the experience by providing valuable resources and experience about their topic.
This event is in person at the VillagesOKC Office or a Virtual option is avaliable via zoom. The zoom link will be forwarded to your email upon request. Please pick up your book from the VillagesOKC office before the Workshop if you are virtual. 3908 N Peniel Suite 330 Office hours M-Th 9:00 -3:00 pm. If you cannot pick up your book please call us for other arrangements (405)990-6637.
