In partnership with the AARP, Oregon State University Extended Campus and OSU Extension have designed a free online course consisting of five modules for anyone interested in healthy aging. Now, on your own time, you can learn practical, research-based solutions to many of the problems that you or aging family members may be encountering. Each module consists of a self-paced slide show narrated by Sharon Johnson, OSU Associate Professor in Family and Community Health. Most modules take less than one hour to view.
