A Message from Township President,
Senator Louis S. Viverito
A new year often brings with it, a chance for reflection, renewed enthusiasm, and a desire to do a little bit better. With that in mind, let this year be the one you and your family take advantage of the opportunities available right here in your own backyard. Stickney Township offers a variety of programs and services that help nurture both body and spirit.
Our newly renovated Medical Center continues to provide affordable, convenient healthcare including physical checkups, immunizations, dental care, behavioral healthcare and a variety of other services for residents of any age.
Our preschool is a wonderful and affordable way to provide children with strong learning foundations, and our youth programs offer innovative ideas to keep kids engaged and entertained during the summer.
We maintain three mealsites that serve township seniors with nutritious lunches, and provide regular programing for exercise and many social activities. We house senior clubs, invite local businesses and agencies in to educate on issues relevant to our elderly population, and we try to address specific topics to help seniors maintain an independent living style as long as they are able.
These are just some of the services offered at little or no charge to our residents and we'd love to see even more of you participate regularly. In this tough economy, and in an environment of diminishing government services, we are fortunate to be able to offer the array of services that we do. As you peruse this issue of News and Views, consider stopping into one of our facilities soon -— and be sure to invite a friend or family member along.
Wishing you and your loved ones a year of health, prosperity and opportunity.
