Living Well in Community Workshop

 

Living Independently for Today & Tomorrow (LIFTT) is pleased to announce that we will be conducting a “Living Well in Community” (LWC) Workshop. The 11-week workshop begins on Thursday, May 1, and will run for 11 sessions through Thursday, July 17 (with no session on Thursday, July 3), from 5:15 p.m. to 7:15 p.m. Participants completing the workshop will be honored at a graduation ceremony during LIFTT’s ADA celebration on Saturday, July 26. 

The workshop will be hybrid, available both in person at the Billings LIFTT office and online to participants throughout our 18-county service area.

Designed as part of the Healthy Community Living (HCL) program and rooted in the Independent Living Philosophy, the LWC workshop is a dynamic, interactive course that helps you take control of your health, well-being, and personal goals.

Throughout the 11 sessions, you’ll build a toolbox of practical skills to help you:

  • Set and achieve meaningful, realistic goals
  • Strengthen your support system and stay motivated
  • Improve communication and build stronger relationships
  • Make healthier choices for your body and mind
  • Learn how to advocate for yourself and your medical needs
  • Maintain the positive changes you make
Whether you’re navigating a personal challenge or simply seeking to feel more empowered and connected, this workshop is for you. Participants often say it feels less like a class and more like a weekly gathering with friends who truly understand and support one another.

LWC is provided free of charge to participants. To register or for more information, contact LIFTT’s lead LWC facilitator, Tanya Thomas, at (406) 702-8927 or tanyat@liftt.org
