State House Lobby Day to Support Home Care April 9th

Our message to our elected officials this year is: don’t put all your eggs in one basket! The House budget is coming out on April 11th, and will be debated the week of April 23rd. Mass Home Care is sponsoring a state house event the day after Easter, April 9th to remind lawmakers that when it comes to long term care supports---EQUAL CHOICE means not putting all your eggs in one basket.

The rally will take place at 2:00 p.m., Nurses Hall at the State House.
We’re going to take around some little chocolate Easter eggs to our elected officials, to remind them that "home, sweet, home" is where people want their care.

If you would like to join a group of concerned citizens from Cambridge and Somerville at the State House on April 9th, please call Mary Ann Dalton at Somerville-Cambridge Elder Services: 617-628-2601.
