Weekly Club Meeting

 
Speaker of the week
 
Christina Ragneborg - Healthy Aging
 
 
Christina has worked in the community social services sector for 43 years, providing services and programming to older adults, persons with disabilities, low-income & and their families.  Along with a retired pastor, doctor, and teacher, she was involved in starting Abbotsford Association for Healthy Aging in 1989. The primary goal is to enhance the lives of our older adult community and ensure that senior individuals can retain their dignity and independence during the latter stages of life.  We strive to be aware of the needs of our older adults and address this by creating programs that are thoughtful, engaging, and fulfilling to support our older community.
