- Please join several VAJP Stakeholders and community participants on Monday, June 15, 2009 for the World Elder Abuse Awareness Day event which will be held at William Mitchell College of Law (Auditorium) from 9am to 4pm.  Speakers will present on several issues related to elders and vulnerable adults.  Snacks and refreshments will be served, and Certificates of Attendance will also be available for participants.  Don't forget to wear purple!

- Our work is done, for the moment.  Chapter 119 of the 2009 Session Laws contains the provisions we've been working on since November 2007.  Other relevant provisions you may want to examine include Chapter 150 (Guardianship Task Force bill), Chapter 46 (Uniform Adult Guardianship and Protective Proceedings Jurisdiction Act - UAGPPJA), Chapter 59 (Public Safety Omnibus Bill), and Chapter 38 (Brandon's Law for Missing Persons).

- There will be a celebration to commemorate the work we've accomplished on the Vulnerable Adult Bill on Wednesday, June 24th at William Mitchell College of Law (Conservatory) from 5pm to 7pm.  Please email Kevin (khansen@eldercarerights.org) if you're interested in attending.  Thank you.
