Stepping stone working with us. We continued presenting outstanding programs to our case membership. Julys presentation was a panel on creative ageing which features laura mason of engage, and jessica mccracken. They gave a wonderful presentation on programs that their agencies are currently offering as well as led us in a discussion about perspectives on ageing which will continue as we try to truly reframe ageing and move to the forefront of those efforts. Our august meeting will be focused on advocacy efforts for the upcoming year. We do an annual brainstorming session where members give their input on areas where funding is needed, so thats always an important kick off, if you will.

We are furiously planning and still fund raising, ill admit, for the september 8 event, which is a both a celebration of ageing and people with disabilities, but please know that it is for all ages and all
