August- A NOTE FROM YOUR LIAISON

Dear Seniors,
The Director and I will are working together and plan to meet soon with our State Legislators on the future of programs
and services for our senior population. We are all very much aware that the senior population is continuing to grow at a rate faster than any other and we all need to work on efforts to support the needs of this population, as well as our cherished Veterans, and our families in crisis.

I am always looking for ways to support all of our residents in the Town of Montville: from our children, to our seniors,
and everyone in-between! As a life-long resident, our growth and success are very important to me! Any questions or concerns are always welcome!
– Liaison Billy Caron
