On Monday, October 16th, our first in-person legislative coffee chat took place at Presbyterian Manor of the Plains in Dodge City. We were pleased with membership turnout and their ability to voice concerns from the aging services provider perspective with Representatives Goetz and White, as well as a staff member from Senator Marshall’s office. 

We’re looking forward to the North Central region taking place next Monday at Meadowlark Hills – make sure you have a representative from your facility in attendance!
