23 <br /> Page 2 of 2 Nora Spencer <br /> I believe that my close involvement in housing and aging-in-place in Orange County can be of <br /> benefit to this commission. Housing stability is of key importance to multiple measures of health <br /> and happiness for older adults. My hope is that my knowledge and connections will provide a <br /> useful perspective in this board s work. In addition, as the leader of a nonprofit that works within <br /> the aging community, I feel that involvement with this commission will provide me with <br /> opportunities to learn more about Aging in Orange County from a broad perspective which will <br /> help Hope Renovations better serve older adults in the community. <br /> Conflict of Interest: <br /> As mentioned, Hope Renovations will be providing repairs/renovations to older adults in our <br /> community. Our work will be offered on a sliding scale, with low to moderate income seniors <br /> paying reduced prices or nothing at all. However, we will be selling our services to seniors, as <br /> revenue generated from this activity will support our mission. I am unsure if this creates a <br /> conflict of interest but I wish to be forthcoming. <br /> Supplemental Questions: <br /> Boards/Commissions appointments: <br /> Human Relations Commission <br /> Application Date: 12/11/2016 <br /> Background, education and experience relevant to this board: <br /> I have worked in Human Resources, organizational development and talent acquisition <br /> (specifically diversity recruiting)for the past 15 years.
