<br />
• Prepare yourself to volunteer as a CDRC-certified mediator equipped with the tools to help others in conflict to work through their disputes independently<br />
<br />

</div><div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: center;">Personal Emergency Response System (PERS), or medical signaling device is an answer to the need for both security and independence. It is a simple way to call for help from a friend, relative, or emergency services (police, fire department, or ambulance). If a user needs help, he/she simply presses a button, which sends a message into an emergency response center. Information about his/her medical history and names and phone numbers of contact people is quickly available. The emergency response center will talk with the user to determine the reason they were contacted, and will respond appropriately. Companies who sell this product are listed under “Medical Alarms” in the yellow pages of the phone book.</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />

The Alzheimer's Foundation is seeking families caring for loved ones with Alzheimer's or related dementias who would be interested in testing a new locator device at no charge. <br />
<br />
<br />
Dear Friend,<br />
<br />
As you well know, wandering is an enormous concern for individuals with Alzheimer's disease and related dementias, and their families-and we are committed to finding solutions to this problem. <br />
<br />
We're excited to let you know that the Alzheimer's Foundation of America is teaming up with Breadcrumb, a technology company, with the intent of marketing a new, innovative locator device specifically designed for individuals with Alzheimer's disease and related dementias who may wander. To move this forward, we are currently seeking individuals with Alzheimer's disease and related illnesses, and their family caregivers to participate in a free, 30-day pilot project. <br />
<br />
We ask that you help us locate interested participants by spreading the word about this important project. As a thank you, participants will be able to continue to use the locator device for one year at no cost (a value of approximately $600+). <br />
<br />
Breadcrumb is a small wristband-type device strapped to the individual, and uses a cellular system to identify the location of a participant who wanders out of doors and to display the person's route and real time location on a map or Smartphone. The device regularly reports the person's location to the Breadcrumb call center around the clock, and pre-identified caregivers are notified via text message and/or phone call when the person leaves a designated geographic field.<br />
<br />
We will provide participants with the system and operating instructions, and ask that they use the system for 30 days and fill out pre-, mid- and post-surveys, as well as data for the call center.<br />
<br />
Specifically, we are seeking a diverse group of participants: residing at home in urban/rural areas from coast to coast, various ethnic backgrounds, various ages, male/female, various stages of the disease, etc.<br />
<br />
Please help us spread the word, and ask your clients who are interested and/or want more information to please contact Christine Valentin, an AFA social worker and project coordinator, at 866.232.8484 or <a href="mailto:cvalentin@alzfdn.org">cvalentin@alzfdn.org</a>. We would appreciate your prompt attention. <br />
<br />
Thanks so much,<br />

Volunteers will be part of a pilot program that will encourage homeowners to increase their energy efficiency and introduce all of the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority’s financing options. Each volunteer will be expected to attend four half day trainings in Elmira (transportation provided) and conduct 2 home energy audits (locations will be provided). Other than the trainings, this is a very flexible program and can fit into anyone’s schedule. No prior experience necessary.

<i><b>Take-Back Message to DEA Employees</b></i><br />
<br />
As part of DEA’s effort to combat rising prescription drug abuse, we are spearheading the first-ever National Prescription Drug Take-back campaign, which will take place at more than 3,700 locations across the country this Saturday, September 25th, from 10 am to 2 pm. <br />
<br />
We are asking all Americans to empty their family medicine cabinets of unwanted or expired prescription drugs, and bring them to one of our collection sites for environmentally safe and legal disposal… no questions asked.<br />
<br />
Acting Administrator Michele M. Leonhart is scheduled to appear on a number of major morning shows this Friday, including NBC’s Today Show, and Fox and Friends, to deliver DEA’s take-back message directly to the American people.<br />
<br />
DEA is also running a national media campaign to promote the Rx take-back initiative that includes TV and radio spots, newspaper ads, billboards and transit advertising in markets all over the country.<br />
<br />
Please help DEA communicate this important message by telling your friends, family, and community members about this event and encouraging their participation. <br />
<br />
We urge everyone to consult <a href="http://dea.gov/">DEA.gov</a> or their local DEA office to find out how the National Prescription Drug Take-back will be rolled out in their communities, and where they can go to dispose of their unwanted medications.<br />
<br />
Thank you for doing your part to fight drug abuse, and for your active participation in the National Prescription Drug Take-back on Saturday. <br />
<br />
PS- To find the drop off location nearest to you, please go www.dea.gov and click on “for a collection site near you.” <br />

<b>September 21, 2010</b><br />
<br />
Did you know that medication interactions are a leading cause of falls for seniors 60 years of age and older? Community based adults over the age of 65 who experienced a fall within the past year were more likely to be taking more than 4 prescribed medications.<br />
<br />
Wouldn’t you like to know if your prescription and over the counter medications could cause you to fall? ProAction Yates Office for the Aging, Yates County Public Health, and Yates County Emergency Management Services are conducting a Medication Review Event.<br />
At this event, a local pharmacist will be evaluating your medications. You will also receive Falls Prevention education including home safety tips, and the sign ups for the Matter of Balance Falls Prevention Exercise class.<br />
<br />
Please bring a list of your prescription and over the counter medications including the name of the medication, the dosage, the dosage instructions, the name of the prescriber, and what the medication is being taken for, to the event location of your choice:<br />

Are you looking for a way you can help a child? Become a CASA Volunteer. <br />
CASA volunteers are trained members of the community who advocate for abused and neglected children in family court. A volunteer follows a child’s cases as it moves through the family court system. The volunteer researches the case, learning everything they can about the child’s special situation. The CASA volunteer then makes recommendations to the judge on what’s best for the child’s future.<br />
