<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black">I’m looking for help and suggestions to invite the right FSU folks to attend a lecture the CPC is hosting next week. I’m particularly interested in folks with an interest in arts
therapy, mindfulness, loneliness/social engagement, intergenerational engagement, and/or dementia interventions. Do you have suggestions (names/emails)? Or feel free to forward this email to any folks you think should be included if that’s easier.

<span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black">Next week, we are hosting OMA founder Elizabeth Lokon and her team members Meghan Young and Krysta Peterson (see attached flyer for details). The OMA team will provide a lecture about this art-making
program and describe a new online intervention platform they recently developed – “ScrippsAVID.” ScrippsAVID leverages key strengths of the in-person OMA program but focuses on those in community settings with all levels of cognitive function and has potential
to reduce loneliness and dementia risks. <i>I believe there is great potential to partner with the Scripps team and seek funding to test the ScrippsAVID platform as a dementia intervention.</i><o:p></o:p></span></p>
