The University of Illinois Extension is continuing a series aimed at teaching people helpful life tips. 

Terri Casey with the Extension in Logan, Menard, and Sangamon Counties explains that the Lessons for Living series is great for any age, but is primarily targeted at the elderly. She adds that the next session is on February 10th, and they will be diving into food labels and how to understand them. 

The series will continue in April with the 'Gardening on a Budget' program, in May, they will have 'Fur-real Companionship,' and in June, they will have 'Becoming a Friend of Those with Dementia.' Casey notes that all of these sessions will occur again in the fall.  

For those who miss the sessions or want to revisit the information, Casey notes that they are diving into YouTube Shorts. She says their YouTube channel is a great place to find clips as well as a variety of longer informational videos.
