In an effort to help seniors better connect with state services, State Rep. Jeffrey Roy (D-Franklin) will be hosting a "community conversation" on the matter this month. 
The conversation - scheduled to take place in the Franklin Senior Center on Friday, Jan. 15 at 10:30 a.m. - will feature State Rep. Denise Garlick (D-Needham), the chairwoman of the Joint Committee on Elder Affairs. 
Garlick - a registered nurse - and Roy will be speaking about the $3.5 billion in senior programs offered by the Executive Office of Elder Affairs and MassHealth. 
"This is to make sure that folks are aware of the services available, to get a sense of what we do in the state government and to get feedback on the areas where we're not doing enough," Roy said.
