Aging & Mental Health: Understanding Emotional Well-Being, Connection, and Support in Later Life
Aging brings meaningful strengths—wisdom, perspective, and resilience—but it can also introduce emotional challenges that are often misunderstood or overlooked. Explore how mental health changes across the lifespan, how aging-related transitions can affect emotional well-being, and how individuals, families, and communities can respond with awareness, compassion, and practical support. Participants will learn how mental health conditions may look different in older adults, why concerns such as depression, anxiety, loneliness, and grief are frequently under-recognized, and how physical health, social connection, and generational attitudes all influence emotional well-being. The course emphasizes realistic expectations, respectful communication, and early support strategies that promote dignity, independence, and quality of life.
