Local program addresses the loneliness epidemic in older adults

More from this show

There is a loneliness epidemic among older adults, and the folks at the Vintage Silver Center are helping to address this.

The Vintage Silver Center is a recreational day program for seniors in Phoenix. It offers a range of activities and support to help seniors remain active, social, and engaged, while promoting overall health and well-being. Recreation Therapy offers a proven, human-centered approach to helping with loneliness, including using music, art, games, and connection to restore joy and purpose.

Brittany Jones, Co-founder and Co-owner of the Vintage Silver Center, joined “Arizona Horizon” to discuss more about the program and how it is looking to help older adults in the valley.
