AAHAA moves into the future By Gail Peckler-Dziki Change seems to be an ever-present constant and change can appear frightening. And as things changed for funding for the Antioch Area Healthcare Accessibility Alliance (AAHAA), the board and staff stepped up to meet those changes. AAHAA received the last $1,100 payment from the Antioch Township last January. That monthly amount added up to over $13,000 annually and helped AAHAA run weekly Wednesday medical rides, using the Antioch Township van. Merry Ladewig, clerk assistant in the Antioch Township office, has taken charge of arranging the Wednesday medical van trips. Merry said the township has two volunteer drivers, but more would be very helpful. Colleen Lennon, AAHAA executive director, said that is working well. “Merry is doing a great job and works well with Stephanie Young in our office.” Stephanie spends a lot of time arranging other transportation from other agencies, including Eldercare out of Waukegan. “We also have volunteers who take those in need of transportation to medical appointments,” Stephanie said. “But we always need more volunteers.” During an interview with the Hi-Liter, Colleen remembered one of the first telephone calls she took when she began at AAHAA. “A woman who had been taking her elderly parents and in-laws to medical appointments needed to find alternate transportation.” “She told me that her boss said if she took anymore time off,” Colleen said, “she would loose her job and there was no one else available to take them.” “I thought I have to help this woman,” she said. “If she looses her job there will be one more that is in need.” AAHAA provided 600 medical needs rides last year. Those rides ranged from doctor visits to physical therapy appointments to a ride home from the hospital. Those necessary rides aren’t the only thing that AAHAA personnel provide for area residents. Network nurse Maureen Cull, with the help of a couple other volunteers, makes home visits, helps clients to implement doctor orders, understand and navigate

The goal behind teaching financial literacy is to help people develop a stronger understanding of basic financial concepts to better handle their money.
