Observations and Celebrations in January |
|
World Braille Day is celebrated on January 4th, Louis Braille’s birthday. Louis Braille was the inventor of braille! Born in 1809 in France, Louis became blind after a childhood accident. At 15 years old, he created a reading and writing system composed of alphabetic and numerical symbols using six dots to represent each letter and number and even musical, mathematical, and scientific symbols.

Martin Luther King Jr. Day is observed on the third Monday in January.
President Ronald Reagan signed a bill on November 2, 1983, creating a federal holiday in Dr. King’s honor. Martin Luther King Jr. Day was first observed as a national holiday on January 20, 1986. This year it is celebrated on January 16, 2023.

The CIE Partner Network works to improve the overall service delivery system for clients. Our meeting provides a forum for partners to share updates about ongoing CIE Initiatives, share trends in our community, and collaborate on how we as a network are leveraging our partnership, data sharing, and the CIE technology platform to address the social determinants of health and increase health equity.
Join us for a range of content. Each month, we may dive into the latest technology projects, elicit feedback on the platform’s care coordination tools, or spotlight programs and supports for unique populations. The partner gathering is a space to engage with peers across our shared network. Join us on the 4th Thursday of every month (except November and December) at 9:00 am via zoom.
