Dear neighbors, Over the last several weeks, our neighborhoods have seen a dramatic increase in planes arriving and departing Logan Airport. The noise levels are unacceptable for health and quality of life issues to our families and property. Please take the time to call the complaint line at 617-561-3333 and voice your concerns. It only takes a few moments. The warmer weather is returning and we should be able to enjoy our homes this summer! Thank you for your time.
Respectfully, Wayne Matewsky PLEASE NOTE: You can call more than once a day and every day that plane noise disturbs you. Also tell a neighbor to call!
House 151-2, approved and sent to the Senate a bill that would give local school districts flexibility in educating their English Language Learner (ELL) students. The key part of the proposal would allow schools to implement alternative ELL programs, such as two-way bilingual/dual language or transitional bilingual education programs, based on the needs of their students.

HOW LONG WAS LAST WEEK’S SESSION? Beacon Hill Roll Call tracks the length of time that the House and Senate were in session each week. Many legislators say that legislative sessions are only one aspect of the Legislature’s job and that a lot of important work is done outside of the House and Senate chambers. They note that their jobs also involve committee work, research, constituent work and other matters that are important to their districts. Critics say that the Legislature does not meet regularly or long enough to debate and vote in public view on the thousands of pieces of legislation that have been filed. They note that the infrequency and brief length of sessions are misguided and lead to irresponsible late night sessions and a mad rush to act on dozens of bills in the days immediately preceding the end of an annual session.

Mayor connects with students at EHS Graduation
O
n Wednesday, June 7, Mayor Carlo DeMaria addressed 500 graduating Everett High School seniors and their families and friends at commencement. He applauded Superintendent of Schools Frederick Foresteire and his administration for once again putting forth such a successful group of students who are fully prepared for their next step in life, whether it’s college, career or a year of community service. Mayor DeMaria stated, “I was truly honored and flattered to meet and speak with these fine students. I was really impressed
with all these kids and the direction they have chosen and wanted to let them know that I am available to provide any guidance they may need along the way.� During his address, the mayor emphasized the importance of setting realistic expectations and being aware of the obstacles and challenges that these graduates might encounter. The mayor offered his services to the students by welcoming all graduates to visit him at City Hall or to email him. He

House passes bill to provide Mass. school districts with flexibility regarding English learner programs
S
tate Representative Joseph McGonagle joined his colleagues in the House of Representatives to pass legislation to enable districts across the Commonwealth to implement alternative English Language Learner (ELL) programs. As the state’s ELL population is incredibly diverse, the proposed change would allow for more flexibility so that districts can tailor programs to better meet the specific needs of their ELL population. English learners are the fastest growing student population in Massachusetts. While academic achievement has improved for other minority populations, significant achievement gaps persist for ELL stu-
dents. This legislation seeks to remedy that discrepancy. “Every student has unique needs, and it is our obligation to foster an environment where they are afforded an education tailored to them,� said House Speaker Robert A. DeLeo (DWinthrop). “Massachusetts’ education system is the best in the nation, and I believe that this legislation will enhance our standing while ensuring that education is indeed, the great equalizer.� To ensure accountability and effectiveness, the legislation establishes a 17-person commission to review the collection and dissemination

WYNN | FROM PAGE 1 from day one. Steve Wynn and the City of Everett are the right combination,” said DeMaria. “With that money, we’re going to build better transportation system; we going to reinforce our public school, police and fire, make our neighborhoods safer. That’s a lot of money. … We can reinvest in our community.” During the meeting, which was held at the Connolly Center, DeSalvio provided an update on construction and hiring at the site, beginning with what for many in the room was the bottom line: How is the casino benefiting residents in the city? According to DeSalvio, over $28 million in contracts has been awarded to local businesses, including Alliance Security, BOSS Steel, Cavalieri Construction, Collins Overhead Door, Owens Moving and Storage, P.J. Spillane Company, True Value Hardware, and T&T Electrical. “There’s a lot of money out there on that job site,” said DeSalvio.

A total of 71 Everett workers are on the site and providing 37,320 man-hours and collectively earning $2,304,861.31. DeSalvio also provided figures for the amount of hours worked by “local” workers, a calculation which includes surrounding communities like Malden and Revere. A total of 454 local workers are at the site, having put in 195,068.95 site hours and making $12,465,194.88, for about 30 percent of the total work. About six percent of the work at the site is being performed by Everett workers, according to DeSalvio, who noted that Everett residents make up only about 0.6 percent of the total state population. “The whole idea was to make sure that we overpopulated the job with Everett residents, and I wanted to let you know that we are trying to deliver on that promise, and it looks like so far so good with a lot more jobs to come,” said DeSalvio. DeSalvio also noted that as construction proceeds to interior work in the coming months, “many Everett residents have those skills we’re going to need.” In all, the project is expected to require about 10 million labor hours. There are currently almost 700 people working on the site. While construction moves along, only a few new permanent positions will be created in the next few years. The bulk of the hiring will take place in April of 2019. “It’s kind of slow rolling right now,” said DeSalvio. “Between now and the end of the year, we’ll probably add another 20 people to the mix; next year we’ll … probably add 100 to that, and then in 2019 it just takes off.” DeSalvio encouraged any jobseeker to keep a close eye on the Wynn Boston Harbor website and to sign up for updates to keep a close eye on any new positions; however, officials did provide a clear breakdown of just what those new
positions will be, including a table showing some of the major categories into which the 4,000 new jobs and 700 titles will fall: Gaming: There are a total of 1,404 full-time and 382 parttime positions. This includes the following: Slots: 81 full-time and four part-time Table games: 931 full-time and 332 part-time Security: 95 full-time and seven part-time Surveillance: 48 part-time and three part time Cage: 88 full-time and 15 part-time Marketing: 103 full-time and six part-time Gaming administration: 59 full-time and 16 part-time For non-gaming positions, there are a total of 1,577 fulltime and 313 part-time positions. This includes the following: Food and beverage: 1,191 full-time and 199 part-time Hotel: 298 full-time and 69 part-time Other: 88 full-time and 45 part-time Facilities: 235 full-time and 43 part-time For administrative positions, there are a total of 166 full-time and 20 part-time positions. This includes the following: Executive: four full-time IT: 33 full-time Purchasing: seven full-time Accounting: 19 full-time Human Resources: 21 fulltime Other: 82 full-time and 20 part-time Roads ahead Officials also spoke about the many road and traffic improvements with which Wynn is involved. In all, Wynn is spending $58 million on improvements in Everett, Boston, Medford, Chelsea and Revere, $11 million of which will go to improvements at the important traffic artery at Sullivan Square.

I was able to stay above that and bring that neutrality to the clerk’s office – stay at arm’s length from all the personal and political fights, which is what people want from the position. That’s something I’m really proud to have been able to have done.” And offering advice to his successor, Matarazzo urged the next clerk to stay, perhaps, even a little more out of the fray than he did. “I hope the next person is as dedicated as me, but doesn’t have some of my work habits,” he said. “It’s ok for it to be a passion, but don’t make it an obsession. Take some time off. Take a vacation. I never took a vacation. In the 13 years I’ve been here, I next took a vacation. You know the world’s not going to fall apart if you’re not there.

Councillor Matewsky demands Massport address airplane noise By Brendan Clogston
F
or months, Councillor-atLarge Wayne Matewsky has been on a crusade against Massport and the sharp increase of nearly constant airplane noise that its new flight path has made over Everett. And now his pleas seem to be getting a little more lift from his colleagues on the City Council. Matewsky presented a resolution to the council on Monday night calling for an official from Massport to attend their next meeting to “to explain constant, loud, low flying airplane harassment over the last month and a half, at the request of concerned residents.” The councillor stated that over the last week, he has received calls from“all across the city,” including from residents of Hancock Street, School Street, Herman Street, Oak Street, Swan Street and all of the streets in Everett Village. “What Massport has done is unbelievable, an injustice to this city,”said Matewsky.“Four planes a minute are flying over the city. Four planes a minute. … This is impacting people’s quality of life. People want to sit in their yards and enjoy their property with their families. I had a woman call me just the other day who had just bought a converted threefamily condo on Baily Street, and she was sitting in the backyard with her husband, who’s a disabled veteran, and she left him alone for a few minutes and came back and he was crying. She asked him what was wrong and he said the planes were just unbelievable. This person spent $350,000. She says, ‘Wayne, if

other communities getting involved, and I don’t want Everett to be left behind,” said Matewsky. “I want the city on record that we are upset.” Councillors, many of whom had previously appeared skeptical of the issue, were largely supportive of Matewsky’s resolution, praising him for raising awareness of the issue. “At first I really thought this was kind of a joke, not a major issue,” said Ward 6 Councillor Michael McLaughlin. “And then over the last few weeks, I can’t tell you how many residents have called me, sent me a private message on Facebook, all hours of the day and night asking me how we resolve this. Most
recently it became a really serious issue in Ward 6. It’s really become a serious issue, and I think Councillor Matewsky is dead-on with this issue. It’s really a good thing that he’s brought this to the forefront and bringing attention to it.” “It’s been clearly more than excessive,” said Ward 1 Councillor Fred Capone, who for weeks has been one of Matewsky’s strongest allies on the issue. “Prior to the runway being closed down, it’s been excessive. It affects all parts of our communities, and it especially affects Ward 1. … We are clearly impacted as a community, and Massport has got to take notice of that. They need to start providing soundproofed windows and other accommodations that other impacted communities receive.” Councillor-at-Large Richard Dell Isola asked if the entire council could become co-sponsors of the piece. Matewsky was thrilled with the suggestion, saying that “they know [him]” at Massport, and a resolution from the entire council would carry more force. The amendment passed unanimously, and the resolution was referred to the City Council’s next meeting later in the month.

pect was charged after a thorough investigation by Sgt. William Fox of the Community Services Unit and Dr. Lauren Mondshein, one of the Everett Police Department’s Crime Analysts. The vandalism reportedly occurred when spray-painted graffiti was plastered on City of Everett public property or privately owned commercial or residential properties. On May 1, 2017, the Everett Police Department began an investigation after receiving numerous complaints about “tagging,” which is spray-painted graffiti. Reportedly, much of this graffiti was spray-painted or written in permanent marker at various locations across Everett. This investigation, in conjunction with the Transit Police, revealed the
identity of a suspect. Mayor Carlo DeMaria said, “I want to thank the Everett Police Department and the MBTA Transit Police for their great work in finding this individual. Our city, businesses and residents should not be subject to this type of vandalism, and these acts will be
prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.” Chief Mazzie said, “The Everett Police Department will continue to investigate these cases and hold those accountable that cause destruction to property. We encourage young people to pursue positive outlets for artistic expression instead of causing damage to public and private property.” Any property owners who discover graffiti on public or private property should contact the Everett Police Department at 617387-1212. Tagging is a felony offense that is punishable by maximum term of three years in the state prison, and it also has a oneyear suspension of a driver’s license upon conviction. The suspect is scheduled for arraignment in Malden District Court on June 27, 2017.

Fireworks to highlight Everett’s Independence Day Celebration City to hold first fireworks display in recent memory at Glendale Park
M
ayor Carlo DeMaria and the City of Everett are pleased to once again invite Everett residents to the City’s Independence Day Celebration. This year’s event will be
held on Saturday, July 1 beginning at 3:30 p.m. at Glendale Park. This year Mayor DeMaria announced the addition of a grand finale fireworks show to close out the event. The fire-
works show, which will be at Glendale Park and timed to an exciting musical accompaniment, will be after sundown at approximately 9 p.m. In the past, Mayor DeMaria had hoped to bring fireworks to the City of Everett and this year, thanks to new technology and changes in Massachusetts state law, Everett will have fireworks at the celebration. Mayor DeMaria stated, “I am really excited to see fireworks for our Independence Day celebration for the first time that I can remember. It should be a great time for kids, families and visitors.” In the afternoon, residents are invited to Glendale Park for a BBQ, musical entertainment from various local bands, activities for family fun and giveaways (first come, first served). Mayor DeMaria and other city leaders will be running the grills and handing out fresh fruits and veggies. There will also be vendor booths with several giveaways and activi-
ties from the YMCA in Everett, the Girl and Boy Scouts, the Everett Community Growers, the Joint Committee for Children’s Healthcare, the Sub-
stance Abuse Coalition, RCN, and Hot 96.9. In case of inclement weather, the event will be moved to Sunday, July 2. If the event is postponed to the 2nd, residents will be notified by Friday evening, June 30 via Facebook posts and robo-calls. Mayor DeMaria stated, “Community celebrations are one of the reasons why Everett was named one of the top 10 places to live in Massachusetts. Please come join the celebration of our country and our community. I hope to see everyone there.” This event is sponsored in part by Everett Community Television, Wheelabrator, Distrigas, Schnitzer, Kelley & Ryan Associates, Stateline Graphics, East Boston Neighborhood Health Center, Paul W.

Some of their comments are included below: Ward 1 Councillor Fred Capone “I had the great honor of serving with Mike on the Common Council with the Ward 6 delegation many years ago. He will be hugely missed.” Councillor-at-Large Peter Napolitano I’ve known Mr. Matarazzo since high school, and I’ve always been impressed by his involvement in the city. … Watching Mike all these years was an inspiration to me and pushed me over the edge into getting involved in politics. Councillor-at-Large Richard Dell Isola “We talked the other day about certain people that had an impact on the city, and Mike just increased that foundation and made Everett what it is today.” Ward 6 Councillor Michael McLaughlin “To see Mr. Matarazzo retire is a great accomplishment for him and his family, but it’s a huge loss for our community. He’s done a lot of good for our city, both as an elected official and as an employee of the city.” Ward 4 Councillor John Leo McKinnon “It’s going to be sad to see [Mike] go. [He’s] been a great clerk and mentor to many in this chamber.” Councillor-at-Large John Hanlon “Every day I ask Mike if he’s sure he wants to do this, and when he says ‘yes,’ I try to talk him out of it. … He’s done a lot for the City of Everett.” The first time Matarazzo ran for public office was a school committee race in 1973 when he was 19. He lost that race, and a subsequent race for City Council in 1975 when he was 21, before ultimately winning a seat in 1977. He served on the City Council for 18 years.

Union laborers & carpenters donate $13,200 to Fire Victims Fund
O
n Thursday, June 8, Mayor Carlo DeMaria received a $13,200 donation to the City of Everett’s Fire Victims Fund from union laborers and carpenters at the Wynn Boston Harbor construction site. The donation is the biggest single gift to the Fire Victims Fund. It comes at a time when the fund was nearly depleted because of a series of recent fires in Everett. Mayor DeMaria stated, “I
want to personally thank Steve union laborers and carpenters own money to the City's Fire Monteiro, Tom Lambert, Lou at the Wynn construction site Victims Fund. Their generosity DiCico, Paul Rodrigues and the who donated $13,200 of their and compassion for those less fortunate is greatly appreciated. I am truly touched by this gesture.” Established in 2009 by Mayor DeMaria, the Fire Victims Fund provides a method for the city’s government, residents and business community to contribute to victims of fire-related tragedies. Since its inception, the Fund has helped hundreds of individuals through devastating fires. The mayor spoke to the union members and emphasized how much the support means not only to him, but also to the residents whom they will be helping. This generous donation will continue to help dozens of potential fire victims. By making this donation, the unions have made a real impact on this fund and impression on the mayor. The union leaders look to continue to grow and evolve as a strong community partner for Everett.

Everett Public Libraries Hosts Summer Reading Program Kickoff By The Advocate
W
ith a theme of“Build A Better World,”the Everett Public Libraries hosted their Summer Reading Kickoff at the Parlin Memorial Library on Thursday morning with two special guests, First Lady of Everett Stacy DeMaria and First Lady of Massa-
chusetts Lauren Baker. Elementary schoolchildren from the Sumner G. Whittier School, St. Anthony’s School and the Pioneer Charter School of Science were treated to a reading of Mem Fox’s “Boo to a Goose” by the Parlin Memorial Library Children’s Librarian, Patricia Els.
Following opening remarks from Parlin Library Director Stacy DeBole, Stacy DeMaria, also a Library Trustee, told the children of her childhood when her father extolled the importance of reading a book during the summer, even if she didn’t enjoy it. Lauren Baker reminded the
children of the importance of reading, which would allow everyone to become successful in life. She also took a “selfie” of herself, DeMaria and the schoolchildren on her cellphone, saying it was always one of the fun parts of her meeting the many schoolchildren across the state.
Supt. of Everett Public Schools Frederick F. Foresteire addressed the children as well, noting the significance of summer reading and its importance to every student’s academic success. Following the event, the children were treated to a game where they could win a prize.

WYNN | FROM PAGE 4 project for the development will be creating turn lanes on Rt. 99, off which the resort’s main entrance will be located. “The fact
that we don’t have turn lanes on Rt. 99 constantly backs it up, as you have to wait for someone to turn left. That’s going to be important for us,” said DeSalvio. Wynn will also undertake im-
provements at Sweetser Circle, Santilli Circle and Wellington Circle – adding sidewalks and turn lanes, widening lanes, extending curbs and medians, optimizing and interconnecting traffic signals and doing landscaping work. “The overall look will be less industrial, more residential,” said DeSalvio. Roadwork is expected to take about 12 months, starting this September and being completed by late 2018. “We’re trying to make sure that the roadwork gets done well before we open, and that gives us a little bit of a window in case something slips,” said DeSalvio. A brief construction update was also provided at the meeting. According to the project’s Director of Construction, Peter Campo, construction at the site is on schedule, with 100 percent of the building foundations and 80 percent of concrete slabs installed. About 112,000 cubic yards of concrete has been installed at the site, and the parking garage is 94 percent complete. About $400,000 sq. ft. of structural steel has been erected to date. The steel structure of the building is expected to be completed by the end of the year. About $2 million is spent on the construction site every day.
EHS | FROM PAGE 3 wants to aptly challenge, educate and provide resources to them, so that they may grow and develop as a result of their experiences. Mayor DeMaria stated, “Follow your passion when you are pursuing a career, and understand that your career will most likely take many twists and turns and please know that it may take you more than a few months or years to discover your passion.” He encouraged students to view themselves as having the potential to make meaningful contributions and to be civically engaged in their communities. Mayor DeMaria stated, “Take every opportunity to build your skills. Your drive, commitment and willingness to work will take you to great places.” As the leader of the City of Everett, the mayor wants to connect with these students, help them develop and offer them resources that will allow them to grow as individuals. He offers a welcoming environment to all individuals and understands the importance of appreciating their characteristics, needs and abilities and potentials, so that they can develop into productive members of society. Mayor DeMaria encourages any EHS 2017 graduate to call his office at 617-394-2270 to schedule an appointment or to email him at mayorcarlo.demaria@ci.everett. ma.us.

PETITION FOR REHEARING FOR THE SJC DALEY/NADEAU CASES
n June 13th, legal counsel (as well as a member of the litigation committee of the Massachusetts Chapter of the National Association of Elder Law Attorneys) for the Estate of Mary E. Daley filed a Petition for Rehearing with the SJC asking for the SJC to reconsider technical corrections and reconsiderations of law based upon the decision it handed down on May 31, 2017. Although this decision was a victory for the elderly and the elder law bar, the SJC brought up an issue that was never even argued during the court proceedings. MassHealth was shot down on its argument that a “use and occupancy” provision in an irrevocable trust somehow made the entire trust corpus countable as part of a MassHealth eligibility determination process. If MassHealth had succeeded on this issue, trusts that included such a provision would have been vulnerable to attack by MassHealth in an attempt to deny MassHealth benefits to an individual in need of care. The SJC heard both the Daley case and the Nadeau case on appeal at the same time. The SJC cited a provision in the Nadeau trust which read “The Nadeaus may appoint all or any part of the trust property to any one or more charitable or non-profit organizations” over which they have no controlling interest”. The court went on to say that “had Nadeau received care at a nursing home operated by a non-profit organization, he could have used the assets of
O
the trust, including his home, to pay the non-profit organization for his care”. The Mass NAELA attorney essentially argued that this limited power of appointment does not allow the holder of that right (the Settlor of the trust, viz. Nadeau) to exercise the power of appointment in favor of himself. Appointing trust principal is essentially the same as distributing trust principal to a named individual or entity. A general power of appointment means you can distribute to yourself. A limited power of appointment means you cannot distribute to yourself or for your benefit. This is consistent with the Restatement 3rd Property (Wills and Donative Transfers, Section 19.15). Mass NAELA litigation committee is working on resolving this lingering issue as well as other lingering issues as a result of the SJC decision in the Daley and Nadeau cases. The power to appoint trust principal to a charity or nonprofit organization does not mean that your nursing home care will be paid for with the assets you appoint to such charity or non-profit organization. The charity or nonprofit organization could use the funds to build a new addition to one of its facilities, for example. The SJC remanded the case back to MassHealth for further consideration of this issue. This came out of the blue. The bottom line is the fight will continue. MassHealth may very well latch on to this “non-briefed” issue in the case and seek to deny MassHealth benefits due to such a provision in an irrevocable trust. This is precisely why the elder law bar is taking pro-active steps in order to bring more certainty into this area of the law. Without these extremely important steps, MassHealth would be operating without any checks and balances and would be free to interpret trust law any way it damn pleases.

Experts agree Consuming fruits and vegetables is the best way to defy nutrition related diseases experts agree. This summer do both stay cool and eat nutritiously. To stay cool in the hot temperatures of summer, assemble your meals with loads of refreshing fruits and vegetables. Utilize the season’s fresh foods to reduce the high fat, sugar and salt often used to make food tasty. Sweet ripe fruits from the ‘pick your own’ farms or the farmers market, the ‘local flavors’ from supermarkets are all within reach and ready to flavor our meals. Foods such as strawberries, corn, blueberries, zucchini and many more are picked at their peak of ripeness. Enjoy a sandwich of grilled zucchini, peppers and hummus instead of the usual deli meats and pair it with farm fresh cucumber slices instead of chips. Trade your hamburger for a homemade turkey burger and an English muffin in place of a hamburger bun. If you must have a hamburger make it yourself with very lean hamburger meat (ask your butcher) and make a four-ounce patty and it will cook down to a perfect 3-ounce portion. Keep saturated fats from animal foods down to
liquid dessert. In moderation it can fit into any eating plan. Cookout meal Make colorful vegetables and fruits a large part of your cook out meal. Relish the flavors of these fresh foods and feel good about all the nutrients that come with it.

How to Hire a Home Helper Dear Savvy Senior, I would like to hire a personal assistant/home helper for my mom to assist with some simple household chores like housekeeping, errand running, driving her to the doctor, and keeping her company. But mom doesn’t require personal/physical caregiving nor does she require any home medical care. Any tips to help us find someone? Looking for Mom Dear Looking, Getting your mom some help at home to handle some of her household chores can make a big difference keeping her independent longer. Here’s what you should know, along with some tips to help you find someone reliable for your mom. Home Helpers For seniors who could use some help at home – but don’t need a caregiving aide for personal care – there are a bevy of personal assistance/ home helpers out there that can help make life a little easier. Most home helpers can assist with any number of things like shopping, running errands, transportation, light housekeeping, laundry, meal preparation, arranging services (home maintenance, lawn care, etc.) and other household chores, along with providing companionship and support. And, if your mom gets to the point she needs personal/physical care like bathing or dressing, they can usually help with this too. Most home helpers are part time workers who work a few hours a day or a few days per week. You also need to know that while Medicare does cover home health care services if a doctor orders it, they do not cover home helper/personal assistant services. There are two ways in which you can go about hiring someone for your mom; either through a home care agency, or you can hire someone directly on your own. Home Care Agency Hiring a home helper through a non-medical home care, or non-medical companion care agency is the easiest, but most expensive option of the two. Costs run anywhere from $12 up to $30 an hour depending on where you live and the qualification of the assistant/aide.
www.reverealuminumwindow.com
How it works is you pay the company, and they handle everything including assigning appropriately trained and pre-screened staff to care for your mom, and finding a fill-in on days her helper cannot come. Some of the drawbacks, however, are that you may not have much input into the selection of the aide, and the helpers may change or alternate, which can cause a disruption. To find a home care agency in your area, Google “nonmedical home care” followed by the city and state your mom lives in, or you can use Medicare’s home health agencies search tool Medicare.gov/hhcompare. Most home health agencies offer some form of non-medical home care services too. You can also check your local yellow pages under “home healthcare services.” Hiring Directly Hiring a personal assistant/home helper on your own is the other option, and it’s less expensive. Costs typically range between $10 and $20 per hour. Hiring directly also gives you more control over who you hire so you can choose someone who you feel is right for your mom. But, be aware that if you do hire someone on your own, you become the employer so there’s no agency support to fall back on if a problem occurs or if the assistant doesn’t show up. You’re also responsible for paying payroll taxes and any worker-related injuries that may happen. If you choose this option make sure you check the person’s references thoroughly, and do a criminal background check. To find someone, ask for referrals through friends or check online job boards like CraigsList.org, or try Care. com, CareLinx.com, CareFamily.com or CareSpotter.com.
