๐Ÿ’š Today is World Mental Health Day, an opportunity to raise awareness about the importance of mental health and well-being at every stage of life.

For older adults and retirees, staying connected to family, friends and community can be an important part of overall well-being.

Earlier this year, RPEA partnered with the New York State Office for the Aging for a webinar focused on social isolation, including ways older adults can stay connected and engaged.

If you missed the conversation, the recording is available on RPEA.org.

RPEA advocates on behalf of New Yorkโ€™s retired public employees, working to protect the benefits, health care and retirement security earned through years of public service.

But RPEA is more than advocacy. Membership connects you with fellow retirees through local chapters, educational programs, social events, important updates and opportunities to stay involved.

Your public service may have ended, but your voice still matters.
