I don't know about you but I like to learn. One of my favorite things to learn are hands-on life skills, especially if its applicable to my current lifestyle. If you are looking to learn about a number of topics that are relevant to you, Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS) offers a great website to get you started.
At Michigan GetSetUp you can explore a range of different topics from understanding VA benefits to learning how to navigate and use social media. Once you become a member, all the classes are currently free, and you can join a live class or book one from wherever you happen to be. It makes learning a lot more convenient as you can even do it from the comfort of your own home.
They have categories for topics that range from fitness and wellness, to cooking, to technology. They even have art classes available!
We shared this information on our website, but I thought it was a great resource (especially senior citizens) and thought it would be beneficial to share it here. Common feedback from our older patrons is a wish for more opportunities to learn, so my hope is that by sharing this resource we can reach more people concerning this.
If you have any suggestions for improvement on this front, please drop a comment or visit our Facebook page and share your thoughts there. We love to hear from our community!
