The Jewish Federation Connecting with Community presents "Successful Aging" with Dr. Ben Liptzin, professor of psychiatry emeritus at Tufts University School of Medicine.  For 25 years, he was chair of psychiatry at Baystate Medical Center in Springfield, MA.

Though some people may think of later life as a period of inevitable decline, Dr. Liptzin will describe ways to successfully age physically, emotionally, socially and spiritually.  He will review the latest science behind living longer and better.

This free program is part of the Federation’s Connecting With Community Series and will be followed by a kosher hot lunch. Lunch is a $2 suggested donation for adults over 60 years of age or $7 for all others. Advance reservations are required for lunch and can be made by calling (413) 442-2200 before 9 a.m. on the day of the program.
