- The CHV holiday party is Tuesday Dec. 10 and cookies will be delivered on December 18.
- Time is running out for end-of-year contributions to Capitol Hill Village. Lots of ways to provide support: qualified charitable distributions from your IRA; through the federal Combined Federal Campaign; and donations of securities and stocks. Of course, there’s also the old reliable cash and checks. Guidance is on page 7.
- Capitol Hill Village has been a stalwart advocate over the years for improved training and availability of Home Health Aides. A December 11 webinar offers the chance to learn more and to help push the issue higher on the DC government’s agenda.
- The holiday period has a special set of stresses, and that includes persons dealing with grief from the loss of a loved one. We provide some tips to help cope while honoring the memory of your loved one.
- Next month, CHV collaborates in a unique program offering art, music, and social engagement to persons with memory loss. The Memory Studio will be weekly starting Jan. 11 with teaching artist Nephelie Andonyadis.
