Our mission at Silver Citizens Inc. is to provide older
people veterans, and family caregivers in Marion County who encounter social
isolation and loneliness with the opportunity to live their lives with hope,
optimism, and dignity. We believe that
by embracing culture and the arts, we can enhance their overall well-being and
help them cultivate a positive mindset and self-awareness.
Silver
Citizens Inc. offers monthly social and emotional wellness workshops for senior
citizens in the Indianapolis community. The workshops are conducted from April
through September and December at the branch libraries. Each session is two and
a half hours long. Our workshops are specially
designed to create a positive mindset and encourage self-reflection in a
classroom-style environment with fully equipped workstations, vision boards
with affirmations, and illuminated mirrors. We provide journals to help
participants document their thoughts and practice affirmations with real-life
scenarios. Our goal is to help seniors in the community achieve emotional and
social wellness, which is crucial for their mental well-being.
