In case you don’t know, the Oasis mission is this: Oasis is a pioneer of the three-pronged approach to successful aging – lifelong learning, active lifestyles and community involvement.

 

As a volunteer coordinator, I work closely with Oasis volunteers and realized recently that many of them are living, what my colleague refers to as the "Oasis lifestyle.” So what exactly does that mean?

At Oasis we're continually looking for ways to offer more programs that demonstrate positive impact in people’s lives. And we've found some common elements of effective programs.

 

We're thrilled to be recognized by the American Society on Aging for our work. On March 12 Oasis receives ASA’s Gloria Cavanaugh Award for Excellence in Training and Education.
