Veterans Day is on November 11, and Argentum encourages all senior living communities to invite lawmakers to recognize the veterans in your community as part of a visit or tour. This is one of the most effective ways to tell our story so that lawmakers can see first-hand daily life in assisted living. Already, more than 130 community visits with policymakers have been held across the country this year. To capitalize on this momentum, Argentum launched a campaign requesting every Argentum State Partner to plan to host two legislators (state or federal) for community tours through the end of the year. Please review our toolkit on hosting lawmakers for community visits, which includes sample invitations you can send to lawmakers, a sample itinerary or tour structure, best practices for preparing for your visit, how to make your request for support of legislation and continue your conversation after the event concludes, and information on how to get started and work with Argentum and your State Partners in setting up these events.
