WAAN Day of Action 2026

Mark your calendars!

On Wed., May 6, 2026, the Wisconsin Aging Advocacy Network (WAAN) will host a “Day of Action” including a virtual training from 1:00 - 2:00 p.m.  followed by an online campaign.

Click here to register for the virtual training on May 6: https://us06web.zoom.us/meeting/register/gSh5PNw6QYG67RVUqaGcEA (registration is limited to the first 300 participants). After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting.

We will use this day to celebrate Older Americans Month and lift priority aging network issues for the next budget and legislative session. Our day of action will be complemented by local, in-district meetings held by WAAN core members throughout the state.

WAAN has selected these three issues as the priorities for our Day of Action training and campaign:

  1. Older Americans Act – State funding for home-delivered meals
  2. ADRC – State Funding
  3. Falls Prevention – State funding

 

Local hosts are encouraged to schedule the in-district meetings between late March and the end of October 2026.
