NewBridge University! We strive to engage, support and unite older adults. As we age our learning path may look different, the manner in which we learn may change, and our learning curve might be steeper - but we never stop learning. All of our program offerings under our Diversity & Inclusion and Classes & Activities, will fall under NBU. Some of our classes will be offered to specific groups, to help provide a safe space where participants can share and express themselves with older adults who look like them and share similar life experiences.

It provides us with opportunities for social connection, intellectual stimulation and growth and development in all aspects of our lives.

As we age our learning path may look different, the manner in which we learn may change and our learning curve might be steeper - but we never stop learning and growing.
