This is the last week to reserve ad space before printing the annual Retirement Connection Guide of Puget Sound. Please let me know of any corrections needed, additions you would like included, or changes to be noted. The guide continues to grow with each edition and we are so thankful for each of you that provided content for the guide or shared a copy with a family you are helping.
Our team was together last week for our annual strategic planning. We are excited about some new ways we integrate technology into the daily tasks of Retirement Connection. Here are just a few examples from the past month… -We have added a map feature to our website, so families can look for the closest place to pick up a print Retirement Connection Guide. -We have added a contact email for all claimed listings on CareAvailability.com for families to submit an inquiry form directly to providers when looking for
services. -Our digital articles have seen increased traffic on google. -We are adding videos to our resource library to help families better navigate the care continuum.
This year we are excited to bring more digital advances to our sponsors.

Nugget Of Knowledge
"Difficulties are meant to rouse, not discourage. The human spirit is to grow strong by conflict." ~ William Ellery Channing
When we push ourselves into uncomfortable situations, that is when we grow the most.
Although tough conversations can be taxing at the moment, hopefully, the result is increased knowledge and understanding of the other person’s view and needs. If we never lean into more challenging conversations or tasks, we can’t improve the status quo.
