H.R. No. 2181

	R E S O L U T I O N
	WHEREAS, National Older Americans Month is being celebrated
	in May 2017, and this observance provides an ideal opportunity to
	recognize the Jefferson Outreach for Older People in San Antonio;
	and
	WHEREAS, A nonprofit organization, the Jefferson Outreach
	for Older People works to help those 60 years of age or older who are
	homebound, isolated, or physically frail in their quest to maintain
	their independence and remain in their homes as long as possible;
	and
	WHEREAS, The services that Jefferson Outreach offers to area
	seniors include meal and grocery delivery, transportation to
	medical appointments, home repairs and lawn maintenance, and
	referrals, and the organization also hosts weekly lunch gatherings
	and provides telephone reassurance calls to clients who may be
	coping with loneliness; Jefferson Outreach is funded entirely by
	grants and by donations from churches, foundations, and
	individuals; its mission is carried out by a smaller, caring staff
	and a team of volunteers, many of whom are seniors themselves; and
	WHEREAS, The Jefferson Outreach for Older People endeavors to
	not only help senior citizens enjoy a better quality of life but
	also to instill in them a sense of well-being as valued members of
	the community, and all those associated with this outstanding
	organization may take pride in their significant contributions;
	now, therefore, be it
	RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 85th Texas
	Legislature hereby recognize the Jefferson Outreach for Older
	People in San Antonio on the occasion of National Older Americans
	Month and extend sincere appreciation to the organization's staff,
	volunteers, and supporters; and, be it further
	RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
	prepared for the group as an expression of high regard by the Texas
	House of Representatives.
