Medicaid is critical to the well-being of disabled people, family caregivers, care workers, older adults, and families in EVERY community and district. That’s why we are going to join in a 24-hour #ProtectMedicaid vigil in DC. You can tune in: https://t.co/I5lpZLnjli

When we come together, we have the tools and power to #ProtectMedicaid. We’re calling on Congress to prioritize the needs of everyday families, people with disabilities, and others. Sertoma Star Services consumers are tuning in! You can too!

Right now, Congress is debating a budget that would cut $880 billion from Medicaid. That’s why families and consumers across the country are in DC sharing stories to make sure our elected officials know why they must #ProtectMedicaid. Join the vigil! https://t.co/I5lpZLnjli

The Seniors group had a great time exploring Odyssey Fun Farms in Tinley Park. The farm has a hay ride, corn bin, mazes, a pumpkin patch along with plenty of other fall fun activities. What a fun way to embrace a fall day!
