Learning Opportunities for Seniors and Their Families

Senior Book Club

Empowering Seniors and Their Families with Information

​

One of the most meaningful ways Senior Homeowner Advisors supports older adults and their families is through education. We regularly offer seminars and webinars designed to help seniors and their adult children navigate the many questions and challenges that come with aging and homeownership. When a topic calls for deeper expertise, we invite professionals from our referral network to co-host or lead sessions—ensuring you're getting the most accurate and valuable information possible.

​

These sessions are open to the public and hosted at libraries, senior clubs, community centers, and other local venues . Our goal is to provide practical, compassionate guidance that helps people make informed, confident decisions — without any sales pitches.
