In early 2023, Senior Planet from AARP at Avenidas will begin transitioning the Senior Planet program operated at 450 Bryant Street in downtown Palo Alto into a licensed partner site.

What does that mean for you? In-person Senior Planet classes will continue to be offered at Avenidas, but the way you receive information about upcoming classes will change. In-person class listings will eventually be posted only on Avenidas’ website: www.avenidas.org. Online classes from Senior Planet will continue to be posted here on our website at seniorplanet.org/classes

We offer the licensing program to community-based organizations across the country completely free of charge. The program allows these partners to offer Senior Planet classes to local participants, without us being on-site to deliver them. Avenidas staff and volunteers will become licensed trainers to deliver the Senior Planet classes you know and love.

We are here to answer any questions that you have about this change, and we thank you for your ongoing support!

For more information about Senior Planet programs, please call the Senior Planet Hotline: (888)-713-3495
