Community Collaboration with Michelle Gramoglia, President and CEO of Woodland Pond at New Paltz

In this episode of the LTC Heroes podcast, Michelle Gramoglia,
President and CEO of Woodland Pond at New Paltz joins us to
discuss how LTC organizations can effectively collaborate with
their wider community.
Community Collaboration

Michelle explains that when your organization has a strong
presence within a community, it’s important to develop symbiotic
relationships with other organizations, businesses, and community
members. By forming collaborations with entities like banks,
clinics, schools, and other businesses, you can have a greater
impact in your community and benefit your residents while doing
so.


She gives us some examples of her organization's current
collaborations and highlights how to find success with these
collaborations. She notes that being transparent and gaining
buy-in from all stakeholders is a key priority when forming these
relationships. She also mentions the importance of gaining
clarity on the responsibilities within a collaboration in order
to find the best possible way to work together.
Lifelong Learning Center

Michelle also discusses Woodland Pond’s lifelong learning center,
which is a collaboration with the New Paltz State University of
New York. She says it’s a great way to encourage residents to
stay engaged while also providing the opportunity for other
community members to enjoy learning something new.
