5 Things: Disability Advocacy, Candidate Statements, Meetings and Heart Month

1. Career Development and Curriculum. A disability specialist at Northeastern University will be at the Wayland Public Library tonight to discuss how students with hidden and apparent disabilities can utilize the disability services office at their universities to help them achieve their career and life goals.

2. Candidate Statements and Election Letters. Wayland Patch is pleased to publish candidate statements and letters to the editor throughout this local election town meeting season. Send your information to wayland@patch.com. Candidates, remember to include a profile photo.

3. Meetings Today. The Board of Selectmen, Finance Committee and School Committee are among those scheduled to meet tonight. Check out the Town of Wayland calendar for several more meetings as well as the details and agendas for those meetings.

4. Newsletters. If you aren't getting the Wayland Patch newsletter in your inbox each morning, you're missing out on a simple way to see the latest headlines. Sign up today for daily, weekly or breaking newsletters (or all three!)

5. Happy Heart Month. If you've seen a lot of people wearing red this month, it isn't just for Valentine's Day. February in American Heart Month. If you haven't taken time yet this month to assess your heart health, there's no day like today. Check out the Centers for Disease Control's page related to preventing heart disease.
