Because
there is growing evidence that medical cannabis can help people suffering from
chronic pain, post-tramatic stress disorder (PTSD) and other conditions, I am
sponsoring a resolution urging the Kentucky General Assembly to join 29 states
and the District of Columbia to allow its use on recommendation of a medical
practitioner. Nine other Councilmembers have joined me.
The community is invited to attend one of three town hall
meetings on the topic of legalizing the use of cannabis for medical purposes.
Each town hall meeting will be held in a different part of the community, with
the first town hall starting Monday, February 19 at 6:00pm. Each town hall will
start with presentations by panelists both in support and opposition to the
resolution.
Persons attending the town hall meeting will have the
opportunity to ask questions of panelists following opening remarks. Each town
hall is expected to last 60-90 minutes and comments received during each event
will be given to all members of the Louisville Metro Council.
Town Hall Meeting Dates:
Monday, February 19, 6:00PM – Lyndon City Hall (515 Wood Road)
Monday, February 26, 6:00PM – Louisville Fire Fighters Hall (400 Bakers Lane)
Tuesday, February 27, 6:00PM – Southwick Community Center (3621 Southern Avenue)
A copy of the
proposed resolution is available by clicking HERE.

$5 February Returns for Four “Museum Row” Attractions
Frazier
History Museum, Louisville Slugger Museum & Factory, the Muhammad Ali
Center, and the Kentucky Center for the Performing Arts to offer $5 deals for
locals
The Muhammad Ali Center, Louisville Slugger Museum & Factory, Frazier
History Museum, and the Kentucky Center for the Performing Arts – all partners
in downtown Louisville’s Museum Row on Main -- are teaming up to offer $5 deals
for Kentucky and Indiana residents throughout February. The Ali Center,
Slugger, and Frazier museums will be offering $5 admission rates to locals
throughout the month, and patrons of the Kentucky Center’s SCENE at the Center
will receive a $5 off restaurant orders of $50 or more.
Frazier
History Museum: The Frazier History Museum is where the world meets
Kentucky and in February it’s through outstanding exhibits and exciting
programs. Family Gathering: Linda Bruckheimer’s Kentucky celebrates
the beautiful, heartbreaking, sometimes funny and always authentic photography
of acclaimed photographer and native Kentuckian, Linda Bruckheimer. The Lewis
& Clark Experience takes guests on an immersive and educational journey
with the Corp of Discovery. A Valentine’s Day themed Second Saturday
program on February 10th tackles candy, cards and other crazy Feb’
14 traditions and on February 23rd our 25,000 Toy Soldiers come
alive with a curated conversation and cocktail event celebrating W.Britain’s
125 years in the Toy Soldier business.
Muhammad
Ali Center: In January, the Ali Center began major renovations on its
Lobby and Retail Store, both of which will provide the Center the opportunity
to deliver a better overall visitor experience and more contemporary private
event space. Additionally, the much needed upgrades will offer a fresh and
modern appearance to its retail store, while also supplying better
functionality. A major part of the overall improvements will be a custom
designed terrazzo floor in the Main Lobby, which will present a striking and
welcoming impression upon entering the Center, and providing better durability
for this high traffic area. During this estimated 3-month renovation period,
guests must enter and exit the Center at the street-level Group Entrance.
Visitors will still have access to the Center’s award-winning exhibits and can
still expect an excellent museum experience during Black History Month and
beyond.
Louisville
Slugger Museum & Factory: February marks the final
month of Louisville Slugger Museum & Factory’s exhibit, Ali & Aaron:
United in The Fight. Muhammad Ali and Hank Aaron were both titans of the
American sports scene, and have much in common as heroes who endured racism and
faced down challenges with conviction. The original art installation explores
the historic role both played in the fight for civil rights, and inspires
guests to examine their own convictions and beliefs.
All
three attractions are also members of Museum Row on Main,
which offers seven exciting attractions within four blocks of Downtown
Louisville’s historic Main Street. In addition to the $5 February promotion,
Museum Row on Main partners offer $1 off admission to guests who show a ticket
stub from another member museum that charges admission. A deeply discounted
combo admission called The Main Ticket is also available. For more information
about the Main Ticket, click
here or to purchase your package, click

The
Kentucky Center for the Performing Arts: Before enjoying a
performance at The Kentucky Center, celebrate the culinary arts at SCENE at
the Center! The Kentucky Center’s small plates eatery offers bar and
food service two hours prior to most performances in Whitney Hall and the
Bomhard Theater. Throughout February, just mention “Museum Row on Main” and
receive $5 off orders of $50 or more. Take a look at SCENE’s menu here.

Thanks
to several recent grants, Louisville is one step closer to ending
homelessness among young adults in our community. The Coalition for the
Homeless has received funding in the amount of $20,000 from [give] 502 (a
component fund of the Community Foundation of Louisville), $13,500 from the
Gheens Foundation (part of an overall $30,000 grant), and $20,000 from the
Community Foundation of Louisville to launch a Host Homes Pilot Project,
which invites local families to open their homes to provide safe, temporary
housing for young adults ages 18-24 years old as an alternative to living on
the streets or in emergency shelter. The program, which will be carried out
by Home of the Innocents, will provide homeless young adults with a stable
home environment and support services while they navigate the process of
finding and securing their own permanent housing or reuniting with family. Caring, local families are now being recruited to participate in
the pilot program. After an extensive screening and training process,
families will serve as hosts for up to three months while the young people
work with a case manager on a permanent housing solution. Homeless young
adults will choose which family they would like to stay with, and the program
coordinator will help facilitate a successful match. If the pilot project is
successful, the program will be expanded and opened to more families in 2019. The launch of the Host Homes Pilot Project is building on the
success of the Coalition for the Homeless' participation in the 100-Day
Challenge, in which city leaders and two dozen community partners committed
to think outside the box, eliminate service barriers, bring all partners to
the table, and rally the community to house 100 youth or more within 100
days. The effort launched August 1, 2017 and was successful in housing 115
youth by November 9th. For more information about the Host Homes Pilot Project or how
to become a Host Home family, please call Melissa Kratzer at (502) 636-9550
ext. 213, email at mkratzer@louhomeless.org, or visit www.louhomeless.org.

Public Health and Wellness Offering Free Class Series to Prevent Diabetes
The Louisville Metro Department of Public Health and Wellness will
sponsor a free 16-week class series, PreventT2, to help people prevent
or delay the onset of Type 2 diabetes.
Classes begin on Friday, January
19 at 11:30 a.m. and will be held for one hour each Friday at the South
Louisville Community Center at 2911 Taylor Boulevard from January 19 until May
4. For more information or to enroll, call (502) 574-6663 or email andrea.doughty@louisvilleky.gov.
PreventT2 is designed to
help people with prediabetes make relatively small lifestyle changes that can
prevent or delay the onset of full-blown Type 2 diabetes and its devastating
health consequences such as heart disease, kidney failure, stroke and
blindness. It is estimated that one out three people in the United States has
prediabetes and ninety percent of them don’t know they have it.
Those most at risk for prediabetes
include those who:
-
are age 45 or older
- are overweight
- have a family history of Type 2 diabetes
- get little physical activity
- have had gestational diabetes
- have given birth to a baby who weighed more than 9
pounds.
If you fall into even one of these
categories, you should seriously consider taking this course.
PreventT2 participants
will work with trained lifestyle coaches on activities proven to help lose
weight, eat more nutritiously and become more physically active. PreventT2 groups meet for a year, weekly for
the first 6 months and then once or twice a month for the next six months to
maintain healthy lifestyle changes.
PreventT2 is part of the
CDC’s (Center for Disease Control and Prevention) National Diabetes Prevention
Program. Public Health and Wellness has partnered with the Kentuckiana Regional
Planning & Development Agency (KIPDA) to offer the course in Louisville.
