Many thanks to Shaun Plotnick, Alex Aponte, and the dedicated team from Temple University Health System for presenting such an informative and much needed workshop for the Golden Gems at The Salvation Army Kroc Center.

Their presentation on depression and aging provided valuable information, practical strategies, and important resources to help older adults recognize the signs of depression, reduce isolation, and maintain emotional well being.

The Golden Gems were able to share their personal experiences with depression and it became a special bonding moment amongst the group. The Temple University Health Team listened intently and gave valuable support to the Gems.
