Mature Living: Clubs, Friends and Community

     

     

     


The newest episode of Mature Living, “Clubs, Friends & Community,” shows how older adults in Fairfax County are making friends and staying active through local clubs. Many of these groups focus on hobbies like photography, theater, genealogy, investing, and community service. Staff and members from the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at George Mason University talk about the many clubs they offer and what members enjoy about them.

The episode also features leaders from the Fairfax Genealogical Society, the African American Special Interest Group, and the Little River Glen Senior Center. They explain how their groups help people connect, learn new skills, and make a difference in the community and beyond. A licensed counselor also shares why being part of a community is important for mental health.
