DC Villages Advocacy & Lobbying Workshop
2026-02-05 13:00 - 14:00 | Virtual Event
DC Villages Collaborative (DCVC) is hosting its second informative and interactive Advocacy Workshop designed to equip Villages and aging advocates with the tools, confidence, and shared language needed to influence policy at a critical moment for aging in the District.
As DC prepares for Department of Aging and Community Living (DACL) budget performance hearings on February 19th, 2026, decisions are being made that will directly affect the sustainability of Villages and the ability of older adults to age safely and with dignity and joy. These hearings are a key opportunity for Villages to show up – prepared, aligned, and powerful.

Why This Workshop Matters
DC’s legislative and budget decisions in the coming year will shape the future of aging in place, impacting DCVC’s three advocacy priorities 1) direct-care workforce 2) senior housing affordability, and 3) nutrition and food access.
Villages are trusted community voices with lived experience and deep neighborhood connections. This workshop ensures we are ready to:

Speak clearly and confidently to decision-makers
Align our messaging across Villages
Elevate the real experiences of older adults
Influence outcomes at DACL budget performance hearings and beyond

Our unified voice has never been more urgent or more needed!

Who Should Attend
This workshop is open to everyone in the DCVC community – not just advocacy committee members.
You should attend if you are a:

Village leader or board member
Staff person or volunteer
Engaged Village member
Partner invested in aging equity in DC

If you care about strengthening Villages and advancing equity for older adults, this session is for you! If you cannot attend in person, the session will be recorded and supporting materials will be distributed via email following the meeting.

What You’ll Learn
Participants will gain practical, actionable skills to support advocacy efforts tied directly to the DACL budget process and broader policy engagement, including:

How to advocate effectively with DC Council, DACL, city agencies, funders, community allies, and private-sector partners
Clear, consistent messaging around DCVC’s three advocacy priorities:

Workforce
Housing
Food access

How to prepare for and participate in budget performance hearings
Practical steps for engaging elected officials before, during, and after hearings

Know Your Options: Getting Organized
2026-01-20 11:00 - 12:00 | Virtual Event
The beginning of the year is a time to refresh and set goals. Many resolve to get organized but sometimes it’s hard to know where to start. Join professional organizer Judy Tiger and professional daily money manager Leah Nichaman as they walk us through tips on organizing your home, downsizing, paperwork solutions, streamlining payments, and more. Judy and Leah will also share how a professional can help get you started on a path to organization.
Judy Tiger is the owner of Just That Simple, a company that provides decluttering and organizing services as well as ‘get ready to move’ services throughout the DC area. Owner Judy Tiger came to organizing after many years in the nonprofit sector and a childhood in the foreign service. This diverse background is reflected in her organizing skills, her attention to detail, her dedication to helping everyone and her sensitivity to the individual needs of each client. She believes that you deserve to be safe and happy at home, to easily find things you need and to have places to put them away again. If that is not happening now, she believes you could use a little help. As she says, “It’s just that simple!”
Leah Nichaman founded Everyday Money Management in 2006 to serve people with disabilities, senior citizens, and those dealing with a life change such as a serious medical condition, divorce or loss of a spouse. Leah’s work at the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) taught her that financial organization is a challenge for many people, particularly those with mental illness, intellectual disabilities and dementia. She is an organized person who loves to bring order to anything – especially paperwork – and believes that financial organization plays a key role in keeping her clients independent and secure. Leah is the past president of the American Association of Daily Money Managers. She also volunteers as a Representative Payee for low income clients through EveryMind (formerly the Mental Health Association of Montgomery County). Leah holds a degree in Cognitive Science from Brown University. She has lived in several cities in the US and overseas, including Jerusalem, Israel and Tokyo, Japan. Leah lives in Rockville, Maryland with her husband, Loren, and has two adult daughters.

Join Palisades Village for a free workshop on end-of-life medical care planning.

However, everyone has the right to make informed decisions about their care, including options like Allow Natural Death, Do Not Resuscitate (DNR) orders, and limits on life-extending treatments, especially in cases of dementia or terminal illness.
In this workshop, we’ll explore essential Advance Directives, such as Living Wills and Powers of Attorney for Health Care, which every adult should have. We’ll also discuss medical orders for those nearing the end of life, including Physician Orders for Life-Sustaining Treatment (POLST). Additional topics include specialized directives for individuals with dementia or those in the LGBTQ+ community, as well as Washington, DC’s legislation on Medical Aid in Dying.
If you’re ready, you’ll also have the opportunity to prepare and witness documents to ensure your wishes are clearly communicated to both your loved ones and the medical community.
This workshop will be led by Kye Briesath, Life Journey Coach.
