SUMMARY:Staying Engaged in Retirement & Continuing Your Growth
DESCRIPTION:Through the continuing partnership with the Canadian Foundation for Economic Education (CFEE)\, NLPSPA and CARP NL are pleased to co-sponsor the second in the ongoing series of online webinars for 2026 that are aimed to help older persons and retirees live with dignity\, confidence\, and financial security in their retirement years. The next workshop will take place\, as follows: \nWhen: Tuesday\, April 14\, 2026 \nTime: 2:00-4:00 PM \nRetirement isn’t just about stepping away from work — it’s about deciding what comes next. In this session\, we’ll explore how staying engaged through work\, volunteering\, and lifelong learning can support your sense of purpose\, connection\, and overall well-being. Whether it’s part-time work\, mentoring\, or giving back to your community\, participants will reflect on what meaningful engagement looks like for them\, and how to approach this next stage with intention. \nIn this session\, we will also examine the financial side of staying active in retirement\, including how earned income may affect benefits\, taxes\, and long-term plans\, as well as the trade-offs between paid work and volunteer opportunities. This session is designed to help participants think beyond “retirement” as an endpoint and instead see it as an opportunity for continued growth\, contribution\, and informed decision-making. \nThis is an online event. Registration is required. \nhttps://us06web.zoom.us/meeting/register/28PdjaG4R6qnLn3ezFVTcw

SUMMARY:SUPPORTING LUNG HEALTH
DESCRIPTION:NLPSPA and CARP NL\, in partnership with the NL Smokers’ Helpline\, will offer an information session that intends to raise awareness about the health risks of smoking and vaping\, promote smoke-free living\, and support people who want to quit.

While you may not think this applies to you as an individual\, most people know someone who is smoking or vaping\, especially amongst our younger generation\, and this will provide you with information to message the harm to one’s health and to share with anyone who is being exposed to second hand smoke/residue. If time allows\, the presentation will also include a guided meditation or a single breathing exercise. \nWhen: Tuesday\, January 20\, 2026 \nTime: 2:00 PM-3:30 PM \nVenue: Online Presentation by Zoom\, meeting room will open at 1:45 PM \nIn recognition of National Non-Smoking Week January 18-24\, 2026\, we are pleased to welcome Susan Haskell\, Outreach Facilitator of the Newfoundland and Labrador Smokers’ Helpline.  Susan is a Registered Respiratory Therapist and Certified Tobacco Educator with decades of experience in respiratory care.  Her presentation will include the topics of nicotine addiction\, health risks of smoking and vaping\, and share evidence-based information that can help you or your loved ones and friends to reduce/quit\, should that be your decision.  Susan will also demonstrate the Nicotine Replacement Products that are currently subsidized by the Newfoundland and Labrador Prescription Drug Program and tell you about the scope of free and confidential services that the SHL offers throughout our province.  There will be an opportunity for questions.   \nRegistration is required.
