Seniors Speak

The Seniors Speak program's primary goal is to encourage seniors to share their stories, insights, and experiences so that current and future generations can appreciate those who came before them. It is intended to inspire participants to document their personal and family histories while advocating the involvement of younger generations in their quest.
