Thursday, September 26th   Dear Neighbor, On September 26th, I will be holding the final session of this year's Virtual Older Adult Roundtable Series. Session V will focus on Advocacy Issues that Impact You, including climate change, wait times for critical services, and how to assess information related to the upcoming election. See below for more information and registration details.  Best, Liz Krueger State Senator Senator Liz Krueger's Virtual Older Adult Roundtable Series NYS Master Plan on Aging (MPA) Session V - Advocacy Issues that Impact You Thursday, September 26th, 10am - 11:30am The number of older New Yorkers keeps growing, yet there are still many critical policy areas that need to be addressed. We'll discuss three key initiatives with our expert panelists. The first is a unique partnership between Cornell University and LiveOn NY that will study the impact of climate change on older adults. The second will explore efforts to reduce the wait list for services required to support you as you age in place. And finally, given the historic impact of the upcoming election, the League of Women Voters will share tools to allow you to better assess the reliability of election-related information and ultimately help you to make the best decisions about the future direction of New York and the nation.
