🎉 Celebrating Excellence in Service to Seniors! 🎉
We’re proud to congratulate Kayla Baham, our 2026 Service to Seniors Award winner, along with this year’s outstanding finalists, Lori Martin Williams and Laurie Fox! This award is a national honor recognizing a CSA who demonstrates an exceptional commitment to serving older adults and making a meaningful difference in their community.

Kayla Baham was recognized for her service and involvement with the Alzheimer’s Association®, Calcasieu Council On Aging, Elderly Protective Services, and the Better Business Bureau.

Lori Williams was honored for her work with Emelita’s Closet, and Laurie Fox for her involvement with Breakfast Club.

The recipients were announced at last week’s CSA Conference, where we had the opportunity to celebrate their commitment to making a meaningful difference in the lives of older adults and their communities.
Laurie was unable to join us in person, so Bob Roth, who nominated her, proudly accepted her certificate on stage on her behalf.

Please join us in congratulating Kayla, Lori, and Laurie—and in thanking them for exemplifying what service to seniors is all about! 💙

Shelli Johnson 's Trailhead Keynote, Breathtaking: A Field Guide to Living Your Epic Life, clearly struck a chord with our attendees at the annual CSA Conference. We have received significant and enthusiastic feedback about it, and conversations about it have continued long after her keynote ended!

Thank you, Shelli, for an inspiring and memorable start to the day—and for reminding us to live and lead with courage, intention, joy, and connection.

Want to keep the inspiration going? Check out Shelli’s book, Breathtaking: A Field Guide to Living Your Epic Life.
