Last week, the Jane Addams Senior Caucus community lost an important member of our community: Marsha Cole. On Sunday December 19th, 2021 we will gather as a community to honor Marsha's legacy and be together as a community. 

Register here to attend.

Here's more about Marsha Cole from one of her friends and fellow JASC members, Lillie Young:

We at the Jane Addams Senior Caucus and Jane Addams Seniors in Action have lost a good friend, colleague and ally on December 8, 2021 when she slipped away from us after a long and painful battle against covid19 and pneumonia. The locomotive of death outran us - we could not stop it though we prayed for a miracle.

May you rest in peace Marsha. As you continue your journey, we will continue the fight for justice and equality for everyone.

Join Chicago Women's Health Center's Scout Bratt and JASC leaders to explore ways we can create inclusive, supportive, and expansive organization spaces. We'll be focusing on gender-expansiveness and LGBTQ+ inclusivity. In addition to discussing terms and definitions, we'll talk about how JASC can further the efforts of gender justice as we organize together!

Thanks to a matching grant from the Retirement Research Foundation, donations made to JASC on Giving Tuesday will be MATCHED! Stay tuned for more info, and get ready to give!

If you would like to join our fundraising team and spread the word about this huge day of giving, please reach out to Saskia at 312-787-2382 x227 or email saskia@seniorcaucus.org.

The trainings will take place on Tuesday, November 16th at 2:30-4:30 and Thursday, November 18th at 10am-noon. Members must attend BOTH parts for successful completion as 2021 Healing Circle leads!

The Caucus started Healing Circles at the beginning of the pandemic following the passing of a beloved member, Frank Hill. The Circles began as a space for members to keep connected to community and express the complexity of emotions experienced during this uncertain time. 

The Circles have evolved to be member-led and we are inviting more members to be trained to become facilitators to help us continue this important space for healing.  This is a two part training that will include topics such as the origin and history of Healing Circles, facilitation of Healing Circles, and structure of the Healing Circles. 

Members who complete the two part training will join our 2021 Healing Circle cohort and will go on to co-lead our monthly Circles with another leader (and staff support). Any member that has attended one or more Healing Circle is eligible to attend the training.

For any questions, please contact Becky at Becky@seniorcaucus.org or at 773-816-1653.
