    Advancing Recommendations to Support Pathways to Prosperity

    As Phase IV of the Citizens League's Pathways to Prosperity Project begins, we will design the details to put into place the general recommendations supporting prosperity in Minnesota from Phase III.

    For details, read the executive summary (pdf) or the entire working document (pdf) that shows our findings, conclusions and recommendations to date.

    If you have ideas that will help develop these recommendations or would like to contribute to this work, please contact Bob DeBoer at bdeboer[at]citizensleague.org.

    Place your receipt in the Citizens League bin at your local Kowalski's. Kowalski's will make a contribution to the Citizens League each quarter based on the number of receipts in our bins. If you don't see a bin at your local market, please ask the store manager and they will add us as space allows.
