End-of-life decisions don’t just affect older adults. They affect partners. Adult children. Grandchildren. Caregivers. Families.

New York has now signed the Medical Aid in Dying Act into law — and many people still have questions:

➡What does it actually mean?
➡Who qualifies?
➡What safeguards are in place?
➡How is it different from other end-of-life care?

Join us for Transformation Tuesday: Whose Death Is It Anyway? Medical Aid in Dying in NYS 📅 March 31, 2026 🕑 2 PM ET
🎟️ Register: https://us06web.zoom.us/meeting/register/jhFaZlPbQb-QZtctZfltIg

With guest David C. Leven, JD, a leading advocate for patient rights and one of the key voices behind New York’s end-of-life legislation.

Because dignity, autonomy, and aging justice are not just “older adult” issues — they are family issues. Human issues. Future issues.

Let’s have the conversation.

National “Slam the Scam” Day is Thursday, March 5, 2026! Designated by Social Security’s Office of the Inspector General, this day focuses on stopping government imposter scams. The Social Security Administration (SSA) offers a dedicated scam-prevention resource page to help the public recognize fraud schemes involving criminals who impersonate SSA employees. The page includes scam alerts, shareable materials, and downloadable social media toolkits to help spread the word about warning signs and prevention strategies. Join the campaign to raise awareness, support community outreach, and help protect personal information and finances from Social Security-related fraud.

Caregivers are partners in care — not visitors. The pandemic showed us what happens when care is reduced to a policy instead of a human need. Families were separated. Voices were silenced. People died alone.

We owe it to them—and to the future—to do better.

Join us to take action for the Federal Essential Caregiver Bill. https://us06web.zoom.us/meeting/register/jbnZMZPQSHO5FcOfgaxo4A #/registration
