CAPE MAY – Cape Assist will sponsor six classes designed to teach those 51 years and older to become healthy and stay that way as they age.
Funded by a grant from The Horizon Foundation for New Jersey, the Wellness Education program classes will cover a variety of topics including:
• Making healthy lifestyle choices
• Behaviors to avoid in order to stay healthy
• Safe practices regarding alcohol, prescription, and over-the-counter medications
• Simple tools to take charge of your own healthcare and navigate the healthcare system.
The goal of the Wellness Education Workshops, also known as WISE, is to extend good physical and mental health and to prevent or delay out-of-home placement for older adults.
The sessions are scheduled for six Fridays beginning April 25 and ending on May 30. Classes will run from 10:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. Lunch will be provided. All those completing the six sessions will receive a $50 gift card at the end of the program. Sessions will be held at the Byrnes Community Center 401 W. Youngs Avenue, Wildwood, NJ.
Pre-registration is required as seating is limited. To register call Temerity Berry at 609-522-5960 or email temerity@capeassist.org.
