Fast Approaching - Legal Essentials for Caring for your Aging Parents. A Chance to learn more and have the dialogues before you need them. Check your calendar Monday November 13th at 6:00 pm. The goal is to be prepared with not only documents but knowledge to be able to easily step in when you are needed. This year I have had many families that either had Trusts that needed updated and reviewed or did not have any documents at all. This caused more work at a quicker pace to allow the family to step in help their parent. If family dynamics are an issue, which is also happening more and more, this should be discussed and addressed in planning. The goal is to center on the parents in need and be able to quickly assess their options. Please tell others that might want to learn more and to see Maplewood Long Term Care in Twinsburg. It helps to have looked at options and have your questions answered before having to need to use them. Maplewood is respectful and engages their residents. I hope we will see you next Monday at 6 pm. #estateplanning #forwardthinking #proactiveapproach

Here's how the Jacksonville Jaguars community benefits agreement compares to other NFL deals.

How do effective cross-sector partnerships leverage the collective intelligence, creativity and resilience of local stakeholders working for a common cause? We need a bold, radical, preventive approach with a focus on #community, connectedness and what we can do for each other. Our Healthy Communities Together (HCT) partnership in #Coventry, funded by The National Lottery Community Fund and alongside learning partner The King's Fund, is bringing the whole system together to address #HealthInequalities. This new video, filmed over the summer, provides a snapshot of some of this work - initially happening in the Willenhall neighbourhood with a plan to expand the most effective practice to other parts of the city grappling with persistent health inequalities. "If you're fed up with business as usual, if you're fed up with crisis after crisis and having to deal with emergency, then make some space to come and talk to healthy communities in Coventry about how we can get upstream, how we can tackle the real causes of those emergencies. "That is about community, it's about connectedness, it's about what we can do for each other," says Grapevine CEO Clare Wightman. Meet Clare and other members of the HCT partnership in the film: 👩⚕️ Local GP Sarah Raistrick 🏥 Public health consultant Valerie 📋 Programme manager Debbie 🔥 Community organiser Edwin 🤝 Community worker Andrea, and critical to the partnership's impact; ❗ Active Willenhall residents, Matt and Dorothy. More about Willenhall, the four other test sites and how this national programme is exploring the ability of #collaborative partnerships to overcome their challenges and tackle complex health problems here: https://bit.ly/49gtwtk Thanks to The King's Fund for our film 🙏 #ShiftingPower #SystemsChange Our community of cross-sector HCT stakeholders is made up of Grapevine, Coventry City Council, NHS Coventry and Warwickshire Integrated Care Board and Coventry and Warwickshire Partnership NHS Trust.

It's 600 A.D. in Britain and the Saxons of Essex found a new territory called Middlesex. By this time, you have the South Saxons (Sussex), East Saxons (Essex), Middle Saxons (Middlesex), and the West Saxons (Wessex). For us in New Jersey, you'll recognize familiar names. Except for one. Why is there no Wessex County in New Jersey? When NJ was in its English-ruled infancy it was split in two, East and West Jersey. In the 1600's East Jersey formed the Counties of Bergen, Essex, Middlesex, and Monmouth. West Jersey formed Salem and Burlington. As New Jersey unified and developed new Counties, Sussex County was founded in 1753. And for anyone looking at a map, here is my glaring problem with that. Sussex being the northern-most County in the State, its name, to put it politely, is stupid considering its namesake. So stupid in fact that with it being WEST of Essex and Middlesex, naming it Wessex County is just so obvious. Also there was never a "Norsex" (Northern Saxon) kingdom in England, so again Wessex County make sense. Since then, Counties have been partitioned and new were Counties founded, but none were to be named Wessex. Perhaps one day we'll see it become a 22nd County in New Jersey. Oddly enough, a fictional Wessex County, New Jersey does exist and in all places it's the Friday the 13th series. Anyway, this is my short rant on why Sussex should be renamed Wessex County, and New Jersey can form a new 22nd County in South Jersey called Sussex. #NJHistory #Wessex #22ndCounty

It was really cool to learn about National Basketball Association (NBA) Star Russell Westbrook’s involvement in a new development in the City of Los Angeles that will create 176 new affordable homes! https://lnkd.in/ev6y8UXi Sometimes it feels like our industry operates on an island, constantly on the hunt to amalgamate funding sources and thread the narrowest of needles to bring a project to fruition. Yet the majority of people outside our circles, while familiar with the problem from a distance, do not fully understand the size and scope of the crisis, nor the intricate challenges we all face. In order to expand the pools of financing, from federal to local, widespread awareness and civic education is an essential element to foster more conversation and influence legislation. And there is no denying the power of celebrities in our culture, and the impact they can have on both public consciousness and political discourse. So a HUGE hat tip to Russell Westbrook and the stakeholder team he is working with - from BRIDGE Housing Corporation, Coalition for Responsible Community Development, JPMorgan Chase & Co., Cécile Chalifour, En Jung Kim, Primestor Development, The Seed School of Los Angeles County - Jubria Lewis, Ed.D., Target, South LA Cafe and many more... Wishing nothing but success for Evermont, and I look forward to other projects they embark on in the future. Here’s hoping that more impassioned athletes and public figures will get proactive in solving the dire need for housing in our cities. *p.s - also important to recognize Karen Bass for her affordable housing executive order back in 2022. all of these decisions help our cause tremendously. #losangelesrealestate #dreamsinmotion #seniorhousing #celebrities
