What do "solo agers" need to uniquely consider in navigating retirement? The latest issue of the Generations Journal from American Society of Aging features a collection of articles that provides a deeper look into the lives of "Solo Agers". As requested by multiple members in the group, we'd like to create a space for those exploring this landscape.
Join us in discussing and reflecting on 2 of those articles - ahead of this event, please read the following pieces:

Some questions we'll explore together:

Looking forward!
