The Washington-Warren-Hamilton LTCC's March meeting featured a plethora of good information about local food resources, and frank discussions about contributing factors to food and transportation insecurity in the area.

The in-person aspect of the meeting also allowed many of us to introduce and reintroduce ourselves, and many resources and contact info was shared during the agency updates. Click the thumbnail to read all about it, and click the buttons below to access the presentation info directly!

Our Washington-Warren-Hamilton Long Term Care Council is made up of consumers, caregivers, providers, advocates, government representatives (AAA directors, DSS commissioners), and key stakeholders (including Independent Living Centers) who come together to analyze the local long term services and supports system, identify gaps, duplication, and barriers in the system and make recommendations for improvements. Our Council uses our findings to work toward a system that is more streamlined, efficient, and responsive, helping individuals remain at home and in the community.
