Notice of Public Hearing Office for the Aging – Saint Regis Mohawk Tribe

The Advisory Council and staff of the Saint Regis Mohawk Office for the Aging invite you to attend the Annual Public Hearing to review plans for services for 2015. The Advisory Council is a group of concerned Senior Citizens, service providers and others who meet bi-monthly to review the programs and services of the Saint Regis Mohawk Office for the Aging. The Public Hearing is held to learn from local elders what current needs exist within the community and what issues are important to them.

The findings from the hearing will be incorporated into the 2015-16 update of the Saint Regis Mohawk Office for the Aging Annual Implementation Plan. Your ideas and concerns are important to us as we plan ahead to the upcoming year on how to best serve the residents of the Saint Regis Mohawk Indian Reservation who are 55 years of age and older. Come and meet the elected Advisory Council members and the friendly staff of the Office for the Aging on Wednesday, September 10, 2014 at 11:00 a.m. at the Senior Citizen’s building located at 29 Business Park Road in Akwesasne, New York. Written comments are also welcome and can be sent to the attention of: Lora Lee La France, Director, Saint Regis Mohawk Tribe Office for the Aging, 412 State Route 37, Akwesasne, NY 13655.

We encourage all community members who plan on attending to get together a team of six people to participate in our Trivia Challenge which will begin at 1:00 p.m. The Trivia Challenge will test your knowledge of services available through the Saint Regis Mohawk Office for the Aging. Everyone who participates gets a prize! Call 518-358-2963 for more information.
