The Next Chapter
Pathways

• Peer Coaching matches you one-on-one with a volunteer Peer Coach trained to focus on you, your experiences, dreams and aspirations. Together you will identify hopes and dreams, and develop an action plan to turn your dreams into reality in your Next Chapter.
  
  
• Resource Bank provides a plethora of information and opportunities providing the resources to turn your life plan into action. Information is available on-line and in the Senior Center library. Resource banks include information on Health and Fitness, Community Service, Care Giving, Social Connections, Lifelong Learning, and Civic Engagement…just to name a few.
  
  
• Workshops & Classes are offered on a wide range of topics that focus on life-enhancing subjects including Travel Photography, Financial Planning, Tai Chi and Culinary Arts. The emphasis is always on stimulating imaginative thinking.
  
  
• Life Planning Seminars offer helpful information and resources relevant to your life now and/or in the future.  We also schedule some seminars to help you identify what you want your next chapter to look like and these are structured to assist you to create a vision and construct a detailed plan to move you toward making your dreams a reality.  In this setting, group interaction supports and enriches each member's plan.
  
  
• Networking is one way for Senior Center members and participants in The Next Chapter to support each other in life and in the life planning process. Networking includes opportunities to exchange information and resources with peers and representatives of local businesses and agencies, social gatherings, brainstorming sessions and the use of on-line chat rooms.
  
  
• Roundtables are informal groups, typically group-member led, that provide opportunities to tap into the rich resources of others around the table, and to provide each other with insight, encouragement and support to successfully travel your current life path or to pursue another life path.  For individuals facing a new challenge or preparing to pursue a new direction, we will work to form a roundtable focused on a particular topic (e.g. taking on the caregiver role) or issue (e.g. finding fulfillment in retirement).  Roundtables are formed when five or more individuals have a similar request.
