What members are saying

 I was impressed with some of the people there and would liked to have had more time to ask questions. 

 It was an enjoyable first meeting for me.

      HELLO! I want to start a group like yours in Minneapolis and St. Paul and would like to know more about what is working in your group and ask for some advice on planning. How far along are all of you in establishing a site? Eldercare is my focus.
