Don’t you just love unexpected surprises? Those small, joyful moments that brighten your day. They don’t need to be big or significant, just enough to lift your spirits.
I experienced a couple of those delightful surprises this week. The first came via email, which is usually not a source of good news on a Monday morning. The message was from the state’s Division of Aging Services, asking for signatures on our 2024-2025 Senior Safety contract. While signing documents might seem routine, this program is a true gem, and every time we get to continue it, I feel a surge of joy.
If you’re not familiar with the Senior Safety program, check out ndassistive.org/senior-safety-program/. We’ve partnered with Aging Services for years to provide free assistive technology to people 60 and older, helping them stay safe and independent at home. It’s a highly valued initiative, and other Assistive Technology Act programs often express envy over the work we do.
