Encore Senior Leadership Evanston - Sponsored byThree Crowns Park

Encore Senior Leadership Evanston is for local residents who are retired or making the transition to retirement and want to serve Evanston as leaders. Encore Senior Leadership Evanston is about "stage" in life, not simply age, and participants range from those in their 50's through their 80's.  Encore Senior Leadership Evanston benefits the community by tapping into the experience and energy of seniors, while benefiting seniors who research shows are more optimistic and healthier when they volunteer.

Program participants meet in 10 sessions throughout Evanston to experience its diverse resources.  Each location has sufficient parking and easy access.  Participants will visit community organizations, meet with local leaders, and participate in skill development exercises.

The next Encore Senior Leadership session will be held in Spring 2012. More details to come!
