Dear Home Care Association of WA, Home Care Association of America-WA Chapter, WA State Hospice and Palliative Care Members:

We invite you to join us on Tuesday, November 19th as we hear from Leslie Emerick, who will be providing an overview of the upcoming legislative session. She will also share how recent legislation and the public policy efforts by our In-Home Services coalition strengthen your profession and promote in-home services in Washington state.

Many attendees of our past In-Home Services Days said that they wished they had an orientation prior to the legislative day in Olympia to know what to expect. If you are interested in attending our In-Home Services Day on February 11^th, 2025 this will be a training opportunity to understand how the day is structured and how to reach out to your local legislators for meetings.

Please join us for this meeting hosted by the Home Care Association of WA on:
