The Rainbow Network group meets monthly to discuss LGBTQSGL inclusion (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, same gender loving).

This group offers Villages a safe space to ask questions, get feedback from other Villages, learn more about LGBTQSGL topics, understand the needs and challenges members may face, and help identify actions to enhance inclusivity and affirmation of LGBTQSGL individuals. Meetings generally include time for pre-determined topic conversations and open discussion. All Villages are encouraged to participate.

Join us on the second Monday each month for workshops and discussions on topics of interest to Villages. This series of dynamic workshops is designed to help Villages unlock their full potential, fostering growth, innovation, and sustainable success. Each workshop is tailored to address key areas of development—leadership, communication, team collaboration, strategic thinking, and change management—enabling teams to thrive in a rapidly evolving environment. The workshops provide practical tools, strategies, and frameworks that can be immediately applied to real-world challenges, with a focus on creating a culture of continuous improvement and adaptive resilience.

All Village to Village Network Members are invited to join us on a monthly call to talk about the important topic of supporting our most frail members. As the society ages, it is inevitable that our membership will age as well, so whether your Village is currently serving frail members or preparing to serve them, we will use this monthly call to unpack this complicated programming consideration.

Topics open to discussion include, but are not limited to: developing a volunteer-based care coordination system, creating healthy boundaries for member service delivery, setting realistic expectations for members and their families, coordinating with local community resources, when to make a referral to Adult Protective Services, etc. Please come with your questions and we will try to address as much as we can in the hour we have.

Note: If you have any questions or comments about Frail Members, please contact vtv@vtvnetwork.org.

These monthly talks are designed to help Villages use RunMyVillage more effectively. Each month has a different topic. The intended audience always includes the technology community within your Village; in addition, others in the Village may be invited based on the planned topic. Each of the User Talks has time for Villages to ask RunMyVillage-related questions to RMV and to other Villages. Examples of what we plan for these talks: RMV new release updates and discussions, results of surveys of desired enhancements to RMV, discussion of best practices and common issues particularly where Villages use RMV is different ways, and orientations for new Villages.

The U.S. faces a shortage of accessible, affordable homes that can meet the needs of everyone as they age. At the same time, the number of older adults is rapidly growing: by 2030, one in five Americans will be 65 or older. Learn more about AARP’s approach to supporting age-friendly housing options, key megatrends shaping our shared housing future, and policies and resources to help community members expand housing options to benefit people of all ages.
