Description
We talk to a representative from a nonprofit organization that provides services, information and connections to seniors.
A
That's
true,
that's
true,
and-
and
I
love
talking
to
you,
one
of
the
things
that
I
enjoy
minneapolis
doing
this
show
is
a
just
really
being
able
to
to
help
provide
information
to
our
community.
That's
like
super
number
one,
but
super
number
two
is
just
being
and
riding
shotgun
with
glam
life
kim
is
one
of
the
biggest
blessings
so
to
hear
your
voice.
I
get
activated
in
in
the
best
ways.
That's.
B
So
sweet-
and
I
just
got
to
thank
you
one
more
time,
y'all
when
I
tell
you
and
I
appreciate
all
the
calls
and
love
my
niece
passed
away
last
weekend
and
boy
brother
anthony
came
through
like
a
soldier,
it
was
it
was.
We
had
a
couple
days
just
to
pull
off
the
funeral
and
boy
when
I
tell
you
I'm
so
blessed
to
have
you
and
I
thank
you
for
everything
again.
A
Yeah,
since
you
are
family,
you
know,
and
anything
that
I
could
do
for
you
is,
is
in
the
community.
I
mean
if
the
community
loves
you
too
sis,
so
you
are
always
in
my
thoughts
all
the
time
and
as
well
as
you
are
minneapolis
welcome
to
360.,
I'm
anthony
taylor
from
neighborhood
and
community
relations
coming
every
fourth
or
second
and
fourth
wednesday
of
the
month
at
one
o'clock,
always
my
pleasure.
I
enjoy
this
tremendously
today,
minneapolis.
A
A
So
if
you
are
around
your
your
elders,
your
seniors,
your
grandmas,
your
great-grandmas,
your
aunties
uncles,
maybe
this
show
could
help,
give
you
some
resources
and
some
answers
to
how
we
can
help
our
seniors,
and
I
I
love
sitting
down
and
talking
with
with
our
older
population,
because
it
just
it
makes
me
feel
so
good
inside
because
they
just
hold
so
much
deer
history
of
ours.
So
I
want
to
talk
a
little
bit
about
that
today
with
two
great
people.
One
of
them
is
a
colleague
of
mine
that
I
respect
tremendously.
A
As
you
know,
minneapolis
I'll
give
them
their
roses.
You
know
later
on.
As
we
start
the
show,
but
there's
always
a
little
bit
of
information
that
I
always
kind
of
want
to
share
and
there's
a
lot
of
information.
So
I
try
to
pick
and
choose
some
of
the
best
things
to
talk
about,
and
one
of
the
things
is
that
the
booster
shots
are
are
available
right.
So
I
want
to
make
sure
that
everybody
kind
of
knows
that
the
choices
that
we
make
with
the
boosters
I'll
tell
you
a
quick
story.
Minneapolis.
A
I
got
my
booster
shot
on
friday.
Right
so
I
got
my
booster
shot.
It
felt
the
same
as,
as
my
covet
shot,
no
symptoms,
anything
and
I
feel
blessed
to
have
that,
but
you
can
mix
and
match
the
boosters.
I
ended
up
with
my
vaccine
minneapolis
I
got
the
pfizer
and
then
for
the
booster
shot.
I
got
the
modern
and,
if
you've
been
listening
to
any
information,
we've
talked
about
you
can
mix
and
match
the
cdc.
A
That
said
that
that's
fine,
so
I
got
my
booster
shots,
so
they
are
available
so
just
kind
of
want
to
make
sure
people
you
know
understand
that
that's
possible
to
get
the
booster
shot
and
also
there's
a
rapid
testing
site
in
the
convention
center.
So
just
you
can
get
those
same
results
that
day.
So
you
know
look
at
your
symptoms
find
out.
If
this
kind
of
affects
you
and
then
you
can
go
and
get
your
rapid
testing
and
it's
at
the
convention
center.
So
I
think
that's
super
important.
A
We
know
where
that's
at
it
closes
on
christmas
eve.
The
site
is
closed.
So
christmas
eve
christmas
day,
new
year's
eve
and
new
year's
day
testing
is
free.
There's
no
cost
to
anyone
so
understand
that
I
think
if
you
can
want
to
get
a
quick
test,
you
can
go
to
the
convention
center.
Also
too,
I
think
one
of
the
things
that's
pretty
important.
Minneapolis
is
there's
a
city's
basic
income
pilot
program
open
now.
A
This
program
provides
200
families
with
an
income
boost
of
500
per
month
for
two
years
right
so
beginning
in
the
spring
of
2022
right,
so
there's
200
families
that
selected
you
can
go
to
minneapolis.gov
g
b
I
to
find
out
what
that
pilot
program
applies
to
so
zip
codes
are
really
in
our
minneapolis
area.
Right,
I'm
going
to
give
you
all
of
those,
but
if
you've
got
a
miniature
zip
code,
that's
where
you're
at
so
look
into
that.
If
that's
something
that
you
think
that's
important
or
500
a
month
is
a
great
bonus.
A
What
I
want
to
tell
you
to
minneapolis:
is
that
just
make
sure
if
you
apply-
and
you
get
this
money,
that
it
doesn't
affect
other
benefits
that
you
may
have,
so
I
want
to
put
that
out.
There
too
go
to
minneapolis.gov
gbi
right
to
figure
that
out.
I
think
that's
super
important.
I
have
a
person
coming
on
about
a
public
works,
hiring
right
lots
of
great
jobs.
A
I
have
a
person
coming
on
from
public
works
to
talk
about
some
of
the
job
openings
that
are
happening
in
the
city
but
and
she'll
be
on
right.
So
I
don't
want
to
give
a
whole
lot
of
information,
but
I
want
to
let
you
know
that
there's
a
lot
of
jobs
that
are
happening
in
the
city
of
minneapolis,
with
public
works
just
to
name
a
few.
There's
public
work
service
worker,
one
two,
there's
water
distribution
operator,
one
there's
just
a
lot
of
different
things.
A
So,
if
you're
looking
to
work
inside
the
city
of
minneapolis
I'll,
have
a
guest
come
on
to
talk
about
that,
because
there's
a
lot
going
on
in
minneapolis-
and
I
always
lose
my
breath
because
I
got
a
30
minute-
show
trying
to
get
information
on.
But
with
that
being
said,
I
want
to
introduce
two
people
to
come
on
and
talk
about
resources
for
seniors.
One
person
is
christina.
Kendrick
people
call
her
tina.
My
colleague
from
neighborhood
and
community
relations
works
with
our
aging
population
so
well,
and
also
amanda,
bygus
and
amanda.
A
A
It
is
great,
it
is
great
to
have
you
on
on
our
show,
and
I
love
this.
This
conversation,
this
topic
right
and
and
and
tina,
was
the
one
that
that
kind
of
mentioned
put
this
in
the
space,
but
why
not
being
on
the
radio
great
idea
right?
So
what
I
want
to
kind
of
just
do
is
just
let
people
know
who
you
are
so
tina.
I
speak
to
you
every
day.
I
know
everything
about
you.
Let
minneapolis
know
something
about.
You
too
tell
us
what
you
do
for
our
seniors
tina,
how
you.
D
D
D
C
A
A
Goddess,
big
us:
I
love
that
so
amanda
I've
got
some
questions
for
you
tina.
Can
I
circle
back
and
and
ask
you
one
more
quick
question?
Absolutely
please
so
so
so
with
all
this
work
that
you
do
and
the
tremendous
amount
of
work
that
you
do
with
our
asian
community.
What's
the
one
theme
that
you've
heard
from
our
our
elderly
elder
population
and
seniors?
What's
the
biggest
thing,
with
all
your
work
and
all
your
conversations,
what
have
you
heard
overwhelmingly.
D
D
All
that
does
come
out,
but
this
last
round
of
engagement,
we
spoke
with
over
169
elders
and
resoundingly
they're
they're
wanting
to
be
connected
and
wanting
their
voices
heard
and
wanting
to
be
respected
and
valued
in
community
was
across
the
board
in
every
community
that
I
spoke
with,
and
so
we'll
be
incorporating
some
of
those
action
plan
recommendations
into
this
next
update,
as
a
matter
of
fact,
we're
adding
two
priority
areas.
One
is
resiliency
and
the
other
is
respect.
A
That
is
beautiful
and
thanks
tina.
I
just
wanted
to
make
sure
I
I
got
that
out
there,
because
I
think
so
much
work
that
you've
done.
I
just
really
want
to
recognize
the
fact
that
you've
been
in
the
streets
and
you've
been
talking
to
a
lot
of
our
our
senior
population.
So
thank
you
and
amanda
biggest
from
trellis.
Welcome
to
the
show,
thanks
for
coming,
tell
us
a
little
bit
about
what
you
do
and
about
trellis.
C
Yeah
well,
travis
is
a
non-profit
organization.
We
provide
services,
information
and
connections
that
help
people
age
well.
We
do
really
believe
that
people
deserve
to
be
valued
in
their
community
and
to
age
with
dignity.
Our
mission
is
to
assist
individuals
to
age
successfully
and
develop
the
capacity
of
communities
to
care
for
an
aging
population.
C
We
are
the
designated
area
agency
on
aging
for
the
seven
county
metro
area,
and
that
means
that
we
work
collaboratively
with
the
state
through
the
minnesota
board
on
aging,
to
provide
older
americans
act,
funds
to
community
organizations
that
serve
seniors.
So
we
work
with
a
lot
of
organizations
within
the
community
to
provide
funding,
and
last
year
we
awarded
14
million
dollars
to
our
partner
organizations,
and
we
also
do
partner
with
the
minnesota
board
on
aging
to
offer
senior
linkage
line
services.
C
So
senior
linkage
line
is
a
statewide
service
of
the
minnesota
board
on
aging,
it's
a
free
information
and
assistance
line
that
brings
resources
and
assistance
to
older
adults,
families
and
caregivers.
I
say
that
because
a
question
I
often
get
is:
how
old
do
you
have
to
be
to
call
the
senior
linkage
line?
C
We
have
caregivers
who
call
looking
for
respite
and
support,
and
you
know
I
know
you
mentioned.
You
know
the
holiday
season
coming
up,
and
you
know
this
really
is
a
time
where
you
know
family
members
might
start
to
notice
that
older
adults
in
their
life
may
be
struggling.
You
know,
let's
say
you
stop
over
at
their
house
to
drop
off
gifts
or
to
help
put
up
decorations.
C
C
Whatever
the
need
is,
we
have
over
40
000
services
in
our
database,
so
senior
linkage
line
is
there
to
help.
We
are.
We
have
specialists
available
monday
through
friday,
8
am
to
4
30
pm
and
we
can
translate
into
140
different
languages.
I'm
just
going
to
give
that
number.
First
in
your
linkage
line.
Really
quick
and
I'll
give
it
again
before
we
end
today,
but
at
800-333-2433.
A
We
are,
with
amanda
biggest
from
trellis
community
outreach
specialist
talking
about
resources
for
our
seniors
and
and
amanda
just
you
know.
You
said
a
lot
of
services
that
that
that
trellis
provides-
and
I
know,
there's
a
lot
with
knowing
the
pension
and
retirement
routes.
Is
there
any
other
services
that
you
might
want
to
share
that
you
may
have
missed,
because
it
sounds
like
trellis.
Does
a
bunch
of
stuff
right
for
communities.
C
Yes,
we
we
offer
lots
of
programs
that
help
optimize
well-being
as
we
age.
That's
what
we
like
to
say:
optimize
well-being
as
we
age
you
know,
and
you
mentioned
pension
and
retirement
rights.
We
do
have
a
program
that
does
provide
free
legal
counseling
to
individuals
with
pension
or
retirement
plans,
and
this
is
not
just
in
minnesota,
but
we
have
six
states
that
we
do
this
in
so
minnesota,
wisconsin
iowa,
north
dakota,
south
dakota
nebraska,
so
we
help
recover
retirement
funds.
C
I
like
to
give
examples,
because
it's
kind
of
you
know
it's
empowering
to
hear
through
these
stories.
So
I
have
an
example
of
isabel
who
contacted
our
trellis
pension
retirement
rights
program
about
a
surviving
spouse
benefit
after
she
was
told
by
her
husband's
former
employer
that
they
had
no
record
of
her
eligibility,
and
you
can
imagine
I
mean
during
this
time
you're
you're
grieving
the
death
of
your
husband
and
you're,
trying
to
figure
out
all
of
this
complicated
stuff.
C
Going
monthly
benefit
of
800
for
the
remainder
of
her
lifetime,
so
it's
a
really
really
important
process
that
it,
you
know,
can
be
very
overwhelming
for
people.
That's
that's
just
one
of
the
programs.
We
do
also
have
a
program
called
juniper,
and
this
program
program
is
really
working
to
bridge
the
gap
between
healthcare
and
social
care
to
improve
well-being.
C
This
is
particularly
for
adults
who
have
high
costs
and
high
need
health
concerns,
and
with
this
we've
created
a
statewide
network
of
providers
that
offer
evidence-based
classes
to
older
adults,
and
we
partner
with
health
care
companies
for
this
and
we're
able
to
offer
these
either
free
or
low
cost,
and
these
are
classes
that
are
based
on
research
to
help
people
learn
how
to
manage
their
health,
increase
their
physical
activity
and
receive
support
some
examples
of
classes.
I'm
not
going
to
list
them
all,
because
we
have
quite
a
few
classes,
but
just
some
examples.
C
You
know
we
have
an
adrian
aging
mastery
program
living
well
with
diabetes,
living
well
with
chronic
conditions,
social
connect,
false
prevention
classes,
thai
tea,
so
a
lot
of
different,
evidence-based
classes,
and
you
know
as
as
we
age.
We
know
that
we
need
good
access
to
health
care
and
prescription
management
and
things
like
that.
C
But
we
also
know
that
it's
really
important
to
have
things
like
social
connectedness
or
learning
a
new
skill,
and
so
these
classes
are
really
kind
of
combining
those
two
things
to
really
create
fullness
of
life
as
we
age,
and
we
we've
gotten
a
lot
of
great
feedback
about
these
classes.
You
know
somebody
who
took
our
living
well
with
chronic
conditions.
Class
said
you
know
being
with
others
with
similar
health
issues
is
really
good.
It
makes
me
feel
I'm
not
alone.
C
So
you
know
these
are
some
really
great
classes
for
people
in
our
community
and
we
do
other.
I
have
one
other
program,
I'd
like
to
highlight
we're
involved
with
statewide
dementia
initiatives,
and
we
have
three
statewide
initiatives.
We
have
act
on
alzheimer's,
which
is
a
statewide
collaborative.
It
equips
communities
to
support
people
with
alzheimer's
disease
and
other
dementias,
and
we
also
do
a
dementia
friends
minnesota.
C
So
we
we
hold
these
information
sessions
that
teach
people
communication
strategies
for
people
with
dementia
and
we
believe
that
by
helping
everyone
in
a
community
understand
what
dementia
is
and
how
it
affects
people,
each
individual
can
make
a
difference
for
people
touched
by
dementia.
We
know
that
you
know
dementia
is
a
really
complicated
and
hard
disease
for
for
the
person
and
for
the
family,
but
we
know
that
you
can
have
a
good
quality
of
life,
so
you
know
that
kind
of
helps
people
understand
and
be
able
to
provide.
C
You
know
dementia,
friendly
communities
and
the
last
initiative
is
the
remember
project,
and
these
are
one-act
plays
that
are
performed
by
professional
actors
who
bring
real
issues
connected
to
the
care,
diagnosis
and
experience
of
dementia
to
life.
So
those
are
some
of
our
main
programs
that
we
have
with
trellis
that
really
help
older
adults.
A
Amanda,
that's
quite
a
bit
of
stuff
that
trellis
does
like
I'm
sitting
here.
Listening
to
you
and
getting
like
super
impressed
at
all
the
work
that
trellis
is,
is
doing
and
and
really
one
of
the
things
that
I
I
love
about.
This
conversation
is
the
fact
that
I
can
hear
your
passion
like
through
the
air
right,
so
just
talk
a
little
bit
about.
Why
is
the
work
that
you're
doing
so
important
to
you.
C
C
So
there's
currently
almost
900
000
people
over
the
age
of
65
who
live
in
minnesota
and
70
of
them
are
located
in
the
twin
cities
area
and
for
the
first
time
ever,
the
number
of
people
aged
65
and
older
is
is
growing
larger
than
the
number
of
school-aged
children.
So
we're
seeing
this
kind
of
strength,
resources
and
aging
services,
and
one
thing
with
that,
is
that
the
data
indicates
that
white
communities
have
a
broader
awareness
of
available
services
and
non-white
communities.
C
And
what
we're
really
trying
to
do
is
close.
That
gap
we're
trying
to
get
the
word
out
about
our
work,
but
also
being
intentional
about
our
outreach
to
the
black
among
indigenous
and
native
americans,
somali
and
other
african
immigrant
communities
and
something
that
we
did
recently.
Is
we
hired
some
folks
who
speak
different
languages
so
hmong
spanish
somali
swahili,
because
we
do
feel
that
it's
important
for
people
that
we
serve
to
be
representative
and
see
themselves
in
the
work
we
do.
C
It
translates
to
to
the
materials
and
resources
that
we
provide.
So
we
did
have
this
really
amazing
opportunity
recently
to
do
a
photo
shoot
of
some
members
of
our
community.
We've
got
some
volunteers
from
organizations
that
we
partner
with,
because
we
we
want
them
to
see
their
faces
on
our
materials.
A
We
are
with
amanda
biggers
community
outreach
specialists
from
trellis,
given
a
lot
of
great
information,
and
I'm
glad
you
talked
about
that
too,
because
I,
I
think,
as
we
all
get
older
and
especially
folks,
that
are
probably
a
lot
older
than
us
right.
It's
not
easy
to
always
navigate
these
things
right
when,
when
we're
aging
right,
and
especially
in
the
time
for
the
last
almost
two
years,
this
is
a
lot
of
not
a
lot
of
in-person
contact
right.
So
I
think,
as
older
populations,
you
have
to
navigate
these
things.
A
C
Yeah
yeah,
that's
exactly
it!
You
know,
and
we
know
that
in
order
for
communities
to
trust
us,
you
know
we
need
to
be
present
in
those
communities
and
educate
ourselves
on
on
how
different
cultures
view
aging,
because
it's
not
the
same
in
every
culture.
So
you
know
something
that
that
we've
learned
is.
You
know,
for
example,
somali
elders:
don't
really
share
with
the
younger
generation
about
problems.
So
when
we
do
outreach,
we
need
to
speak
directly
to
the
consumer.
Who
is
the
older
adult?
But
you
look
at
in
your
community.
C
C
You
know
so,
for
example,
booking
a
appointment
for
medicare
counseling
or
attending
a
webinar
to
learn
more
about
health
care
fraud,
or
even
just
calling
this
in
your
linkage
line
and
the
reason
being
you
know,
a
majority
of
our
among
elders
arrived
in
the
late
70s
and
80s
and
they
don't
speak
english.
So
you
know
they
seek
the
approval
of
their
children,
so
you
know
we
need
to
be
talking
with
the
children,
so
you
know
we're
learning
we're
learning
as
we
go
forward
and
it's
it's
exciting
and
challenging
work.
C
But
you
know
one
thing
too.
That
we
have
realized
is
that
you
know
we
need
to
recruit
people
in
these
communities
to
volunteer
for
us
because
they're,
the
ones
who
are
in
their
community
on
the
ground,
doing
the
work
and
they
know
what
their
community
needs.
So
you
know
we
we
want
to
recruit
volunteers
who
speak
the
language
who
know
the
culture
so
that
their
voices
can
be
heard
too.
A
This
is
amazing.
Information,
like
I
don't
know,
minneapolis
if
you
are
impressed,
as
I
am
with
trellis
just
off
this
short
conversation
with
amanda
biggest
from
trellis.
I
think
that's
just
it's
a
beautiful
thing
and
amanda
just
give
folks
the
information
right.
How
can
they
get
more
info?
How
can
they
contact
trellis?
Is
there
a
website
kind
of?
Let
folks
know
what
the
little
bit
of
time
that
we
have
left.
C
B
D
A
And
tina,
I
I
really
want
to
thank
you
for
coming
on
today.
This
was
some
really
valuable
information.
I
know
that
people
who
are
listening
and
are
thinking
about
you
know
their
their
seniors
and
their
families
hopefully
got
a
lot
of
good
information
today
and-
and
it's
always
a
pleasure
to
have
good,
passionate
folks
on
the
call.
So
thank
you
for
joining
minneapolis
360
today.
I
really
appreciate
it.

A
That
was
amanda
biggest
and
christina
kendrick.
Talking
about
our
our
resources
for
elders,
and
kim
I
mean
I
I
hold
elders
are
so
close
to
my
heart.
I
mean
they're,
the
gatekeepers
of
our
history
and
just
if
there's
something
that
trailers
can
do,
I
think
it's
a
beautiful
thing
and
it
sounds
like
they
do
everything.
