RAPS-Sheet-2015-September

 Intergenerational living. For example, housing affordability could be increased by combining generations and encouraging residents to support each other as an extended family.  End of life. Supporting those dying as well as those close to them through the process and working for more informed and compassionate choices.  Social Security. She is interested in political action to extend Social Security support to those who perform essential unpaid work, such as stay-at-home and single mothers. She sees herself focusing her career particularly on end of life and bereavement care. Jillian expressed how grateful she is for the assistance the scholarship will provide in her final year. Becoming an unpartnered parent has made it much more difficult for her to juggle work, family and schooling. She commutes between Portland and Mount Angel. She is an outstanding student, and makes important contributions to her profession and community. I am sure if you have a chance to meet her at our Holiday Party or the President’s Luncheon you will be impressed. --Nancy Chapman Chair, Scholarship Committee Football Tickets Available for RAPS Members SU’s Athletics department has made 20 tickets available for the Saturday, September 26 football game between PSU and Western Oregon.
