Senior Planet is a community where people aged 60 and over can learn new skills to live and thrive in today’s society, and where radical changemakers can gather to redefine how the world views aging. Now, the new SeniorPlanet.org will serve as a digital manifestation of everything that makes our Senior Planet in-person community so powerful.
After consulting dozens of members, volunteers, and staffers, the Senior Planet digital team has developed a new website that not only acts as a digital meeting space — allowing more older adults than ever before to participate in and benefit from Senior Planet — but also simplifies, improves, and expands what the site can offer to members and every site visitor.
Here are just a few of the new site features:
A New Kind of Senior Planet Membership
Joining Senior Planet as a member has never been easier! Now anyone 60 and over can join as an online member, giving you access to perks like quarterly impact reports, annual tech reviews, and member-only events. Click here to learn more about becoming a Senior Planet member.
Expanded Sections for Every Location
Each of our six U.S. locations now has a devoted section for local events, courses, news, and other local content. If you’re in one of our six locations, your local section is now a robust hub for the information, news, and schedules you need the most.
Improved Course Listings
Interested in taking a specific course — “Etsy for Entrepreneurs,” say, or “Computer Basics” — but it isn’t offered at your local partner site this quarter? Course listings now show all the places in your area where a particular course is being offered. Click here to learn more about Senior Planet courses.
More Opportunities to Join Us Online
With a new page that will hold online events and online course offerings — we’ll be adding the first listings soon — participating with Senior Planet has never been easier. We’ll be posting innovative online opportunities in one easy-to-find location — all you need is a wifi connection and an open mind!
Easier Ways to Contact Us
You can now get in touch with us via contact pages that route your messages to the most appropriate recipients. There’s now a general contact page as well as specific ones for each location.
… and Much More
The launch of our new site is just the beginning. We’ll continue to improve and expand the site to support the life ambitions and practical needs of Senior Planet members across the country and around the world. More soon!
We’d love to hear what you think! Tell us what you like and what you’d like to see updated on the new SeniorPlanet.org HERE!
