Hello SMAA Volunteers! We wanted to make you aware of an exciting opportunity. (We know a number of you have already followed up on this – but wanted to send it one more time!) Southern Maine Agency on Aging is supporting and partnering with The Maine Council on Aging’s Power in Aging Project. The Power in Aging project invites Mainers across the State to join their anti-ageism campaign to build an age-positive Maine. There are a number of ways to become involved in the Power in Aging Project. A priority of the Project is to hold conversations with groups and organizations to sensitize all to the presence and impacts of ageism, and motivate to take action to address ageism. As an organization dedicated to diversity, equity and inclusion, SMAA is pleased to take part in this project and invites you as well! The Power in Aging conversations are facilitated by volunteers trained and supported by the Maine Council on Aging. Because the SMAA community has a rich pool of seasoned and dedicated volunteers, we’re hosting a special virtual Q&A session over Zoom on Friday, July 9th. If you are interested in knowing more about the Power in Aging Project, and potentially becoming a volunteer conversation facilitator, please join the Zoom on Friday, July 9th at noon! Power in Aging Q&A Over Zoom Maine Council on Aging and SMAA Friday, July 9th 12:00 – 1:00 p.m. Via Zoom – details below Don Harden, Project Manager, will do a quick overview and answer any questions. Thank you, SMAA Volunteers, for your continued efforts on behalf of older adults in Maine!
