Aging is a wonderful thing!!
|
They call it the golden years, but there's a reason many of us dread old age. It can mean losing our health, our independence, our memories, and loved ones. But getting old doesn't mean what it used to. Please embrace this special time in your life and seek new adventures. Doing so will renew your mind, spirit, and soul.

Transition
Peer Groups
(TPGs)
are for women to share and learn from each other. While the groups are meant to create a supportive environment, be aware that any member of TTN can go to any Peer Group meeting or all Peer Group meetings with the exception of Cobb and ITP I. We have them set up by location to make it easier for you to attend one closer to your home. Contact the person listed under each group and let them know you will attend.
