Older Adult Sensitivity Workshop

Allegheny County has one of the highest concentrations of older adults in the United States. Join Michelle Bulger from Vincentian to experience some of the sensory challenges that come with getting older, like changes with hearing, vision and touch. 

This interactive class enables learners to look through the eyes of the older adult and better understand the experiences and challenges they face, providing an opportunity for understanding, empathy and progress. 

Note: This class is not designed for older adults themselves, but rather for those who work, live, and interact with them on a regular basis. 

Registration is required for this program and begins on January 1.  You may register online, in person at the Ask a Librarian Desk or by calling 412-366-8100, extension 113.
