Why we know this works

Shepard's centers have 3 goals:

1. to provide lifelong-learning designed for personal growth and enrichment
2. to provide health and wellness opportunities that enhance and maintain physical and cognitive well-being
3. to provide volunteering opportunities that provide purpose and personal satisfaction in giving back to the community

Thier work not only alleviates loneliness, but provides exciting opportunities for older adults to take on new challenges, learn new skills, make new friends, and serve others.
