Have questions about managing your finances as you age? Looking for strategies to stay resilient and adapt to life’s changes? Are you concerned about protecting your assets and ensuring your wishes are respected? Whether you are planning for yourself, supporting aging parents, or approaching retirement, this educational series will cover ways to protect autonomy and quality of life.
The Keys to Senior Independence series will be held Thursdays, March 26, April 9, and April 16, 2026, from 6 to 8pm at the College of Southern Maryland Building C in Leonardtown.
