THE NEW WEBSITE IS UP and
 the 2016 GRG Conference has been scheduled!

Greetings Grandparents and
Relatives Raising Grandchildren!


     As a result of hearing from many of you just how important access to information and resources has been to you, and to challenge us to build our capacity to supply this information and these resources, we have been working hard, for the past months, on a new and improved website that will make it easier for you to navigate and find the information you are seeking.The new website is up and running and can be accessed at the same address www.massgrg.com.    
     Our thanks to the website developer, Tony Nogueira, and his assistant-in-chief, Judy Curry, for all of their technical and creative efforts on this mission. Completion would also not have been possible without the substantive input and support of the Commission's Information & Referral Sub-Committee chair and co-chair, Kerry Bickford and Skip Stuck, as well as other Commissioners who helped develop the new layout and content.
     Now that the new format is established, we want to hear from you with any and all resources, feedback, suggestions and issues that can be added to the new site to provide for maximum effectiveness. Please continue to provide us with information by emailing to Kerry and/or Skip. We also look forward to receiving the always inspiring Real Stories of families who are providing relative care. You can reach us at the email addresses below.
