Attorney General Andrea Joy Campbell will be the featured speaker at a Women Leading Government meeting on June 26 in Boylston.
Campbell will be followed by the panel discussion “Caring For Aging Parents,” with East Longmeadow Council on Aging Director Erin Koebler discussing resources available to help provide care and support to aging parents and family members. Given the challenge of balancing career demands and other life responsibilities while providing care, three WLG members will share their experiences and practical strategies for finding work-life balance.
WLG is an initiative of the Massachusetts Municipal Management Association, and its events are open to all staff in appointed positions in local government.
The event will be held from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at Cyprian Keyes Country Club. The cost is $25, including a light breakfast and lunch.
