A holistic educational program to enhance the quality of life of Iowans mid life & beyond.
The 2010 Census showed more than 40% of Iowans over the age of 45 with 26.7% between ages 45 and 64 and 14.9% over age 65.
The number of Iowans over age 65 is increasing daily as baby boomers age. The average retirement age nationally is now 62 with a life expectancy of 78 years. The growing number of adults reaching traditional retirement age and beyond presents new challenges and opportunities for communities within Iowa.
Retirees want fulfilling, challenging, and productive lives which reflect the six domains of whole person well-ness: physical , social, spiritual, intellectual, emotional, occupational and financial. Challenges to health and well-being are significant across these six domains.
