work with each other to create a personal ‘backup plan’ to make sure they have help
and support when they need it. The Backup Plan concept was designed by Linda Camp,
an independent consultant and researcher.
“Solos” will meet to explore The Back Up Plan on the 1st Monday of each Month starting May 6, 2024, 10:30am to noon. Please join use at The Community Room, Northwoods Bank, 1200 1st St E, Park Rapids!
