Next Steps in Development & Capacity Building
We are excited to report that we had an encouraging update meeting with the City of Madison about our development plans for the next steps in our Therapeutic Interactive Intergenerational Neighborhood (TIIN). Much thanks to retired lawyer Tim Radelet, and Ethan Schwenker and Doug Buck of Quarles & Brady, LLP, we are making progress on the complex policy issues involved in the next steps of development. This involves serving both older adults and families with young children as residents in a shared site with integrated programming; utilizing the strengths of each group to meet the needs of both. We look forward to sharing more specific information about this in the coming months as details are determined.
As we are working on defining our critical path and moving forward in the next steps of developing the TIIN, we are also working on growing our capacity.
One aspect of this is growing our leadership team. We recently added two new members to our Board of Directors – Tammy Taylor and Angeline Mboutngam. We are also excited to invite a former leader in our community (Jean Collins) to get more involved in the next stages of development. We hope you will help us to welcome them to the key roles they will play in the next stages of development as they share their skills and experience.
