Osher Lifelong Learning Institutes

Senior Centers & Social · Iowa · Free

OLLI — university-based learning communities for adults 50+ at 125+ campuses. A starting point for caregivers needing to get the senior out of the house for adult day care or peer connection. Adult day programs offer 4-8 hour days with activities, meals, and supervision — often Medicaid-covered for those who qualify. Encore careers and "unretirement" programs help retired seniors return to meaningful work or volunteering aligned with their skills. Free service; donations support but never gate access.
