SUMMARY:Stop Rx Greed - Lowell
DESCRIPTION:Americans depend on their prescriptions — but from cancer treatments to EpiPens\, drug companies’ skyrocketing prices are pushing life-saving treatments out of reach for those who need them. We pay among the highest prescription drug prices in the world so drug companies can make billions. No one should have to choose between buying medicine or buying food for our families. That’s not just wrong — it’s shameful. \nAARP has been leading the fight to Stop Rx Greed and lower prescription drug prices across the country\, but we can’t do it without your help. AARP Massachusetts is hosting a free Coffee Hour in Lowell where you can learn how to join the fight for lower prescription drug prices. We’ll be at Pollard Memorial Library from 11am to noon with coffee and snacks\, so come find out what you can do here in Massachusetts. \nRegistration\, while not required\, is encouraged: https://local.aarp.org/aarp-event/aarp-ma-rx-greed-community-conversation-lowell-ma-101719-zxnqhmzmpr6.html?usetown

SUMMARY:International Festival\, New England Justice for Our Neighbors
DESCRIPTION:For the past year\, many hardy volunteers have been providing support for the attorneys who provide legal advice and counsel to the immigrants who have visited the Lawrence and Lowell clinics. I’m just home from the Lawrence clinic tonight where we saw four clients. Lawyers offered advice for women dealing with domestic violence\, a teenager trying to find a new home\, and others seeking asylum form a home county where they are on the wrong side of the current ruling authority. This work is critical to the many immigrants who visited our clinics this year. \nPlease help us continue this work into the new year\, by supporting our fund raiser.  Make your reservations now by emailing us at jfonlawlowclinic@gmail.com. Tables or individual reservations can be made.\nThank you\,\nSharon Jones \n\n\n

SUMMARY:Northeast Recovery Learning Community’s Open House
DESCRIPTION:We are a Department of Mental Health funded entity within the Northeast Independent Living Program. We provide welcoming\, safe\, understanding\, judgement-free spaces where individuals of diverse backgrounds can gather for healing and growth. We are non-clinical\, yet we possess lived experiences that allow us to connect with people openly and honestly. We are a community of peers in recovery from mental health challenges\, substance use and or traumatic life experiences. We offer peer run support groups\, workshops and trainings such as Wellness Recovery Action Plan (WRAP)\, community social events\, LGBTQIA Support groups\, Hearing Voices Support groups\, Addiction Recovery Support and support for families\, Spanish Language Trainings\, Advocacy\, Certified Older Adult Peer Support\, Community Bridging and a variety of other resources and supports. \nWe are holding the Open House so that we may better connect with community partners and create a space for dialogue\, so that we may best assist the Greater Lowell area. I think at this point in time\, we all know at least one individual who is either suffering from or succumb to addiction. Our hope is that we can smash the silos and invoke real change\, while generating a support system for ALL individuals who are struggling\, have been cast aside or are trapped by a seemingly hopeless state of mind. \nMike Berggren \nNortheast Recovery Learning Community \n35 John Street\, Lowell – 978-687-4288 x 200 \n20 Ballard Road\, Lawrence – 978-687-4288 x 140
