Letter from Liaison Councilor Billy Caron:
Dear Seniors,
I hope you are all doing well and everyone that wants one, is able to get your COVID vaccine. I am grateful to our friends of the Mohegan Tribe for working with me and our Center Director, to be able to offer the vaccine to all of our seniors still in need. I am aware that there are many programs available to our senior population at the different levels: Fed-eral, State, and Local, so please take advantage of all the benefits you qualify for to help you through this difficult time. We have a great staff at our Sen-ior Center and Social Services and they are working hard for all of you. If you have any needs, please call them and allow them to help. I know we are all looking forward to the days when we can all be back in each other’s company, safely! Again, I hope you are all staying safe and healthy and want to remind you all to reach out for assistance if needed, there are many avenues of help! – Councilor Billy Caron
