Vision Zero Tactical Toolbox IV. Evaluation of Public Education Initiative V. Media Partnership Recommendations VI. Community Organizations VII. Design Examples VIII. Appendix – MBTA Specs VISION ZERO CAMBRIDGE PUBLIC INFORMATION PLAN JUNE 2019 Vision Zero Strategic Communications Goals Working with Vision Zero and City of Cambridge staff, we have identified a number of strategic communications goals for the Vision Zero initiative as it relates to the public education component of the action plan. A comprehensive and successful public relations strategy will only be achieved by knowing the objectives that the organization wishes to attain. As such, below we have outlined the recommendations for Vision Zero’s strategic communications goals based on our discussion: 1. Develop an easy-to-understand but relevant message for those living in Cambridge and those who drive through it regarding the need for slower, safer driving. 2. Communicate that Cambridge wants to see ZERO car crashes that result in fatalities or serious bodily harm for those walking and biking in Cambridge. The audience is all who use Cambridge streets, including but not limited to drivers, with the recognition that those who will benefit will most likely be pedestrians and bicyclists. 3. Deliver a toolbox of baseline ideas, as well as creative ones, to deliver this message. 4. Develop a set of recommended media partners to approach or to deliver an ad campaign 5.

  • Courts Strip Elders of Their Independence Within Minutes, Judges Send Seniors to Supervised Care
    Courts strip elders of their independence Within minutes, judges send seniors to supervised care By Jeff Kelly, Maggie Kowalski, and Candice Novak Globe Correspondents / January 13, 2008 Dawn Cromwell dares not leave her building. If she tried, a device girding her ankle would sound an alarm. For over a year, she has had to use store-bought reading glasses because her pleas for a prescription pair have gone for naught. She is given medications, but, she says, no one will tell her what they are. For 20 months now, Cromwell's life has been defined by a 10.5-by-12.5-foot living space at North End Rehabilitation and Nursing Center. In her tiny closet, there are virtually no clothes, and she has no idea what's become of the cherished possessions in the Boylston Street apartment where she lived for years. At 73, Cromwell is one of hundreds of forgotten docket numbers in Massachusetts probate and family courts, where judges routinely fast-track infirm elders into the care of guardians, often with little evidence to justify such wrenching decisions. Cromwell, after a broken ankle and a brief rehab in early 2006, had expected to go home. But on the say-so from the nursing home's doctor - a short, nearly illegible diagnosis - a judge decreed that Cromwell was mentally ill and handed all of her decision-making to a guardian. Cromwell lost all power over her own life, with no opportunity to object, no right to have a lawyer represent her, no chance to even be in the courtroom.

  • Truro Log August 2012 Truro Council on Aging
    TRURO LOG AUGUST 2012 TRURO COUNCIL ON AGING WWW.TRURO-MA.GOV/COA William “Bill” Worthington explained to me the reason that he volunteers is because of the example of his parents. In the 60’s his father inherited some money and with it he built the Pamet Harbor Yacht Club and the floats. He bought a power launch, too. He and Charlie Francis also built the small house nearby. He got some boats and hired someone to teach sailing. Harriet Hobbs was one of the first students. Bill remembers that they tied knots on rainy days. In the 80’s Ansel Chaplin and Charles Davidson created the Conservation Trust and Bill’s mother was on the Board. Both parents also volunteered in Connecticut. William Worthington Almost as soon as Bill moved out here in 2001, Ansel Senior of the Year Chaplin suggested that he join the Planning Board. He was Chair for a little while and is still on the Board. He is newly on the Provincetown Water and Sewer Board which because of the new North Unionfield well site, requires 3 members INSIDE THIS ISSUE from Truro. Truro has leased this well site - Provincetown does not Senior Citizen of the Year own it which is a different set-up from the other Truro well sites. Bill is also on the Truro Water Resources Oversight Committee. Beyond Store Bought: They are working on a comprehensive water management plan Eco-Chic Gift Wrapping concerning nitrate intrusion. Bill is on the Energy Committee, and for a while he was Truro’s Live Your Life Well representative to the Cape Light Compact.
