Join MHAC for our first quarterly Advisory Council & Statewide Network meeting on March 16th from 10 am to noon. We will hear from US HHS Regional Director Everett Handford and engage in an interactive focus group discussion on regional mobility managers – a study being launched by MassDOT.

Solutions to community challenges are most likely to come from those closest to the issue. That is why community insights and perspectives are so important.

Hundreds of participants shared insights from across Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Rhode Island. These perspectives help us better understand what is important and how we can help–while remaining committed to following community voice and community-led solutions. This community input informed the Foundation’s new strategic plan, which we’re excited to share with you.

Join us for a webinar on March 29, to learn how we will implement future strategies with community and stakeholders. Everyone is welcome to attend.

Join ACL’s Office of Nutrition and Health Promotion Programs (ONHPP) to celebrate the 51st anniversary of the national Senior Nutrition Program, which is funded by the Older Americans Act. This virtual event will recognize the program’s impact and discuss how to continue innovating to advance the critical services the program provides to older adults in communities across the country.

In addition to remarks from ACL senior leadership and ONHPP director Keri Lipperini, the event will feature a special presentation by Stacie Noble of the Kentucky River Area Development District.

This event will be captioned. A recording will be available on ACL’s celebration webpage after the event. If you have any accommodation requests, please email Kathryn.Tucker@acl.hhs.gov.
