Dear Volunteers, Friends, and Neighbors:
Thanks to your advocacy, Hennepin County has restored half its funding for the three block nurse programs: Longfellow/Seward Healthy Seniors, Southeast Seniors, and Nokomis Healthy Seniors! We now need the City of Minneapolis to increase their funding above Mayor Frey’s proposed budget to sustain the same combined funding level from the county and city as we currently have. Please email the entire Minneapolis City Council with this message: Please vote for the Schroeder Amendment to increase funding by $110,000 for Aging Support Services including the three Minneapolis block nurse programs. This funding will ensure that over 1,500 frail, older adults and their caregivers continue to remain independent, healthy and safe in their homes. Thank you for supporting our seniors!
