National Assisted Living Week (NALW) media toolkit is now available on www.nalw.org.  Included in the toolkit are samples of an invitation to the media to attend a community event, a letter to the editor, a press release highlighting a technology program, a proclamation, and social media posts.

The 2016 NALW theme, “Keep Connected,” recognizes the increasing opportunity technology can offer to enhance the care and overall experience in assisted living communities. This year NALW kicks off on September 11 and runs through September 17.

NALW is the perfect opportunity to spread the word about:

• All you do to support opportunities for residents to use the latest communication tools to engage with the world around them.
• How your staff and business partners are revolutionizing the care provided in your community through innovations in technology.
• Ways you cultivate connections with local families, business owners, government organizations, community organizers and others to ensure that residents remain an active part of where they call home.
