Testimonials From Members - Why I Became A Unitarian Universalist
Nancy Letts
"As a UU, my life underwent many changes. I found and nourished a deep connection to something greater than myself that I call Spirit, or Creator. I’m a grateful UU still committed to finding deeper meaning in my life and to acting on these expanding beliefs in ways that help myself and others."
The Neighbors Network of Lee County (NNLC) is part of the national Village-to-Village movement with the mission to provide a sustainable support system for seniors who want to age in place. As such, NNLC is a professionally-organized, volunteer-driven nonprofit with the goal of organizing a network of neighbors throughout Lee County to enhance the experience of aging in community.
The Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Fort Myers’ support ensures that we lay a foundation with cornerstone values of inclusion and social justice.
There are three primary components of our network:
Seniors help one another with basic needs such as transportation, errands, light housekeeping during emergencies, friendly visits, and wellness calls, reading, computer help, brief respite care and THINGS NEIGHBORS USED TO DO FOR ONE ANOTHER.
Develop and host learning and wellness activities for greater connection and engagement, reducing social isolation.
Provide meaningful lectures and seminars, connecting with community partners and learning of the many local free programs designed to help seniors thrive.
Our pilot village is in formation in the Six-Mile Cypress corridor, and our mission is to build villages throughout the county.
