Positive Ageing (3) Learning from Japanese Canadian Seniors

 

Presented by Momiji / JSS / Yee Hong Centre

1-hour online session (Zoom) each to learn about Depression, will be co-provided by Momiji Health Care Society and Japanese Social Services (JSS), joined by Yee Hong Centre for Geriatric Care, on Wednesday, March 10, 3 – 4 pm. *Held in English

What is this session about?

Do you have a negative image of getting older? As we get older, we have more knowledge and rich perspectives. Everyone can benefit from learning from people’s experiences. For this session, we will invite a couple of Japanese Canadian Momiji residents who can share how they are living their daily lives with positive thinking, in an interview format, followed by a Q&A period at the end. As the pandemic continues, it is very natural to feel stressed and difficult to see the positivity in your days. Please join us to learn together from the Japanese Canadian seniors.
This third session of our new series, Positive Ageing, is offered in English (simple wordings as possible), in collaboration with Yee Hong Centre for Geriatric Care.
*Held in English.
