Digital Education Programming Presented by the
Center for Health & Wellbeing
Places are powerful. They tie us to people. They tie us to memories. They affect who we are and influence who we become. In this workshop, you will explore how your total environment affects the depth and quality of their life. We will look into where you have lived and traveled to, your hometown, where you live now, and how your specific dwelling place, local neighborhood, and greater town or city all contribute deeply to who you are and what you are experiencing at this moment of your life.
This program is presented by Paul Jacob (Jake) and hosted by the Winter Park Health Foundation.
