Both were a rousing <br />success. Thanks to your participation, Senior needs such as <br />Lifelines, Activity Assistance and Emergency Assistance will <br />continue to be funded to the benefit of needy seniors. <br />The Advisory Board is well on its way in the pursuit of <br />"Creating A Vibrant Community in Which We All Age Well", <br />the Seniors of Louisville Advisory Boards' new Mission <br />Statement. We have also adopted a vision statement: To <br />provide for the welfare of seniors through programs and <br />services of the Louisville Senior Center by advising staff and <br />participating in focus groups; thereby building a link <br />between the community of seniors, advisory board and staff <br />in addressing basic needs, maximizing independence, <br />promoting social and civic engagement and optimizing <br />physical and mental health and well-being. <br />In an effort to provide for the welfare of seniors, two focus <br />groups, Social And Civic Engagement and Physical & Mental <br />Health & Well-Being have each identified a need, created a <br />plan to meet that need and are in the process of advising staff <br />of additional support or funds to complete the task. Thank <br />you to the many seniors who have volunteered to join these <br />groups and are working for the welfare of seniors. We are on <br />our way. <br />You are the vital link between seniors, staff and the advisory <br />board. We encourage and welcome more of you to join us. <br />Please attend one of the next Focus Group meetings to start <br />getting involved..... <br />Basic Needs: <br />Housing Friday, July i8, i:oopm <br />Social & Civic Engagement: <br />Programs Friday, June i,3, is oopm <br />Physical & Mental Health & Well-Being <br />Physical Activity Tuesday, Aug 5 is oopm <br />Sincerely, <br />Connie Howes, Chair <br />www.LouisuilleSeniorSeruices.com Page 2 (303) 666-7400 <br />
