Brave New Living Webinar

Even before COVID-19, it took courage and initiative to break out of isolation and rebuild our support networks. We may have already been strapped in isolating situations such as illness, caregiving, living alone, divorce, relocation, or the death of a loved one.

Please join us as we host rehabilitation counselor and author, Val Walker, as she explores and shares ways to: 1) Stay close to others and deepen our bonds, despite social distancing. 2) Build our communities, expand our networks, and pave the way for our future social lives.

July 25, Warren Public Library, New Jersey, Zoom Author Talk, 400 Friends and No One to Call, 1:00pm-2:00pm
