Coming Soon: An Upgraded Senior Planet Website!
You spoke, and we listened!
Over the past year, Senior Planet has been diligently working on redesigning seniorplanet.org to better meet your needs. We gathered feedback from participants and compiled insights from our hotline, resulting in a new and improved Senior Planet experience set to launch in the coming months.

What is Changing:
For the first time, seniorplanet.org will support the creation of user accounts. These accounts will allow you to personalize your Senior Planet experience. You will be able to save upcoming classes you’re interested in, view recordings of classes you register for, and save articles and videos for future reference. As an added bonus, these new accounts will also work for the Senior Planet Community!
If you prefer not to create an account, don’t worry! You can still register for and join programs, read articles, and access resources without one.
Helpful New Features
We’re excited to introduce several new features:
- Reminders to notify you when programs are about to begin or are canceled.
- Improved “Add to Calendar” feature that now supports Outlook and includes Zoom links.
- The ability to browse and filter by topic (like Creativity and AI).
- Program recommendations based on your interests.
- Improved search function (no more past classes!).
- A refreshed look and feel that embodies our motto: Aging with Attitude™
What is Staying the Same:
Our commitment to designing a platform by and for older adults remains unchanged. While we’re adding exciting new features, many of our design principles—such as large text and clutter-free webpages—will stay the same.
We’ve also heard that many users appreciate the current layout of the website. The new site will maintain a similar layout and navigation, ensuring you can easily find what you need!
Where Can I Get Support?
A week before the site launches, we’ll be running classes to preview the new site in detail and walk through some of the new features. The Senior Planet Hotline will also be available to answer any questions and assist you in creating an account.
Stay tuned for more sneak peeks in the coming weeks—sign up for our newsletters to stay informed!
