Thank you to all of you who joined our recent call to talk about next steps
in getting ready for the White House Conference on Aging, which will be
held on *Monday, July 13, 2105*.  As we discussed on the call, everyone is
welcome and encouraged to fully participate in the conference and we are
asking you to consider committing your organization to host watch parties.
We are live streaming the conference – *invite your members and colleagues
to watch together*.  We have a discussion guide so you can have your own
lively debate:  WHCOA Discussion Guide
<http://www.whitehouseconferenceonaging.gov/involved/docs/guide-WHCOA-Issues-Discussion.pdf>.
You can also participate in the Q&A in Washington – your members can engage
in the discussion at the conference via Twitter or Facebook.  Hosting a
watch party is a great way for your members to engage in this important
event.



Many of you have committed to hold watch parties already – thank you for
your commitment.  We would love to hear from the rest of you.  Please let
me know if you have any questions or if you have made a plan to host a
watch party.  I look forward to working with all of you between now and
July 13th to make the 2015 White House Conference on Aging the biggest and
best yet.  Thanks, Sharon
