Your Wider Circle Program Is Evolving
Your Wider Circle program will look a little different because of our updated relationship with Optum. The good news is that Wider Circle is not going away. Many of the things you love about our program will stay the same:
- You’ll still be able to meet up with the friends you’ve made through Wider Circle.
- Wider Circle will continue hosting events you can attend.
- Optum will continue to sponsor some of those events.
What You Can Count On
Here are a few updates you’ll notice:
Bring friends and family to many events.
Use an easy-to-use digital calendar to see what’s coming up.
Even host your own events and invite others.
