November is a time to reflect on the blessings in our lives. When I think about gratitude, what comes to my mind first is family, friends, home and health. This year, I encourage everyone to take it a step further. Not everyone has supportive family or friends, nor a safe home with enough food to live on. Thankfully, we have resources in our communities that help to address all these social aspects.

Community groups and churches, adult day programs, congregate meal sites, home-delivered meals, utility and nutritional assistance programs, respite, and caregiver support – the list goes on. As a community, we are deeply grateful to those who serve others in need – whether through their work, donations, or volunteer time. Our communities are stronger because of them. Thank you for all you do!
