SUMMARY:Member Forum
DESCRIPTION:Location: Via Zoom \nAll Village members are invited to participate in a Member Forum for an open conversation on how we can strengthen our community. \nHere is an opportunity to provide feedback and share your ideas about programming\, social activities\, and ways in which we can help one another feel part of the community. \nThe session will be moderated by Board member Liz Metzger.  Liz was the Village Chicago’s first intern in 2009 and has since had many roles including member of the Health and Wellbeing Committee; part of the internal team that created the framework for the Brain Health/Memory Loss program; and founding Whip of the Bridging Generations Board. \nWe will send some specific questions to attendees a few days before the meeting so you will have time to think about your ideas. This is something new for the Village and we hope you will take this opportunity to bring your ideas and insights to share with the community.
