Hi Friends,

Please share this with folks that might want to learn a little bit more about what they can do to be prepared.

 

Before the Hurricane hits….Learn about Dare County's Emergency preparedness plan of support for frail seniors

GEM is presenting three speakers to discuss and clarify programs and services in place to help folks before and after a hurricane and other weather events on Wednesday June 19th.

Join Carolyn J. Self, Executive Director/Response Specialist, Stephanie Ryder, SW and Dorothy Killingsworth, Coordinator and Public Information for Dare County.  We will meet at 11:30 at Mako Mikes Restaurant in Kill Devil Hills.

All are welcome especially community friends that are informally caring for a neighbor or friend, family members of frail older adults and  church outreach groups will also benefit from learning more about supports that are available.

Our July 17th   program will feature Rosalind Pugh, Family Caregiver Specialist with the Area Agency On Aging to discuss the services and supports that are available to family caregivers of older adults.

Please call Gail Sonnesso, executive director of GEM with any questions.

 

My best,
