Join Bacoa for a fascinating afternoon that may change how you think about aging.  What if growing older didn't have to mean slowing down mentally. 

Dr. Emily Rogalski will share insights from the SuperAging Research Initiative on protective factors to promote healthy aging.  

Tickets are $40 and include lunch and the program. 

Dr. Emily Rogalski is the Rosalind Frankin Professor of Neurology at the University of Chicago where she is Director of the Healthy Aging & Alzheimer's Research Center.  She currently leads the SuperAging Research Initiative.

Who are SuperAgers?  "SuperAgers" are adults over age 80 that have the memory of individuals 20 - 30 years younger.  

What is the SuperAging Research Initiative?  It is an international research study that seeks to uncover the factors that lead to extended healthspan and potentially avoid Alzheimer's pathology.

The Day Out - Adult Day Program recently had a wonderful time creating floral arrangements.

Through our hands on Montessori-inspired activities at the day program, we help our group members connect to the things in their lives that matter to them and bring them joy.
