Legislative Breakfast Brings Out Supporters

Monday, October 26, ACCA held a legislative breakfast with an excellent turnout of legislators and community members. The morning was filled with comments and updates on aging topics and issues from local, state, and national perspectives.

Legislators presents were:

  • US Congressman Jody Hice
  • State Senator Frank Ginn
  • State Representatives Tommy Benton, Spencer Frye,  and Chuck Williams
  • Athens Mayor Nancy Denson
  • Commissioner Jerry Nesmith
  • Winterville Mayor Emily Eisenman

Thank you to all who came out. We are very grateful to have our goals supported and represented by these individuals. Thanks to all community members who came to support the meeting. Together our congregate voices can be heard and we can push our mission and vision forward for the entire aging spectrum.
