SUMMARY:"Wired Wisdom: How to Age Better Online” with author John Palfrey
DESCRIPTION:Join the Chicago Area Villages Collaborative for a moderated discussion with John Palfrey\, co-author of Wired Wisdom: How to Age Better Online. \nClick here to join Zoom Meeting\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/89312935887?pwd=eBsn4swhymbmgg9TnUluiremg0lw1i.1 \nMeeting ID: 893 1293 5887\nPasscode: CAV \nOne tap mobile\n+13126266799\,\,89312935887#\,\,\,\,*116875# US (Chicago) \n  \nEvent Info: \nWired Wisdom is an eye-opening book on the internet’s fastest-growing demographic\, researchers Eszter Hargittai and John Palfrey offer a more nuanced picture—debunking common myths about older adults’ internet use to offer hope and a necessary call to action. Incorporating original interviews and survey results from thousands of people sixty and over\, Wired Wisdom shows that many\, in fact\, use technology in ways that put younger peers to shame. Over-sixties are often nimble online and quicker to abandon social media platforms that don’t meet their needs. Despite being targeted more often\, they also may be less likely to fall for scams than younger peers. And fake news actually fools fewer people over sixty\, who have far more experience evaluating sources and detecting propaganda. Still\, there are unseen risks and missed opportunities for this group. Hargittai and Palfrey offer practical advice and show that our stereotypes can be hurdles that keep us from building intergenerational support communities\, helping loved ones adopt new technology that may improve their lives\, and thriving together online. \nReceive 30% off your book purchase from University of Chicago Press with code: UCPNEW \nJohn Palfrey is president of the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation. He is the author or coauthor of several books\, including Born Digital: How Children Grow Up in a Digital Age and The Connected Parent: An Expert Guide to Parenting in a Digital World. He is based in Chicago. \n \nWhat is the Chicago Area Villages Collaborative? \nThere are eight “Villages” in the Chicago area\, all part of the International Village Movement—grassroots organizations of older adults designed to help people age and thrive in their communities.

SUMMARY:The Sorting Space
DESCRIPTION:This monthly group creates a supportive community where we can talk openly about our challenges with “stuff”. \nNavigating your “stuff” can feel overwhelming\, but you don’t have to do it alone. Through discussion\, shared experiences\, and a peer accountability system you’ll gain the encouragement and motivation to take meaningful steps toward simplifying your home. It’s also a place to share ideas and learn about helpful resources along the way. \nWhether you’re actively planning a future move\, just want to get your home in order\, or simply desire a less cluttered life\, this group meets you where you are. Without pressure or judgement\, The Sorting Space provides community\, guidance\, and one manageable step at a time. \nThis group might be a perfect fit for you if… \nYou look around areas of your home and think\, “I really need to deal with all this…”\nYou want to be prepared “just in case” for yourself or your family.\nYour past decluttering efforts have stalled without accountability.\nYou’re thinking about downsizing or moving\, whether in a couple years or “someday.”\nDecisions about belongings feel emotionally complicated or overwhelming. \nWhat you’ll gain: \nA clear\, manageable path forward \nBy breaking the process down into manageable steps\, an overwhelming project becomes achievable. You’ll learn to take things one room\, category\, and decision at a time\, to build momentum without burning out. \nMethods for thoughtful decision making\nWe’ll explore practical frameworks for deciding what to keep\, donate\, sell\, or pass along to loved ones\, so you can move forward with confidence\, not regret. \nCommunity and Accountability\nPeer accountability makes all the difference. Group members will set monthly intentions\, share progress\, and cheer each other on. Tackling challenges and celebrating successes together can even make the process fun! Knowing others are doing the work alongside you provides solidarity\, motivation\, and encouragement to keep going. \nEmotional support\nOur belongings can carry all sorts of memories\, grief\, or feel like a part of our identity. The Sorting Space is a safe place to honor those feelings while continuing to make progress alongside others who truly understand.\nProfessional Guidance \nEach session features professional insights and real-world strategies for navigating family conversations\, logistical snags\, or mental blocks that are keeping you from reaching your goals. \nAbout our Facilitator \nMarnie Dawson is the owner of Dawson Relocation Services serving the Chicagoland area. Her small but mighty team has been helping seniors and their families with the downsizing and moving process since 2008. She is an active member of the National Association of Senior Move Managers (NASMM) and she is a board member of the Illinois Continuity of Care Organization. Her passion is finding new and creative ways to navigate the emotional challenges of letting go. \n
