Healthy Habits for TRTA Members

Tennessee Retired Teachers Association - Supporting Education

TRTA leadership recently shared information about "Healthy Habits" with local chapter members at the eight October regional meetings. The primary goal was to develop information to assist our members to stay as physically, emotionally, and financially healthy as possible. We discussed securing guest speakers to attend general meetings to discuss healthy food and exercise habits, how to write a living will, tax preparation advice, Medicare and insurance planning, Meals on Wheels, other support networks, and more. One alert TRTA member sent me the "Senior Service Directory" from an East Tennessee county. It is filled with excellent information for senior citizens. Please check with your local chamber of commerce to see if there is a senior citizen guide available in your county and secure copies for your members. If not, try to start an initiative to get your county to develop a senior guide! Your members deserve nothing less.
