Learn How to Go from Home Care Worker to Home Care Business Owner

Dear (Contact First Name), 

In a recent Minnesota Post article, Tracy Dudzinski helped explain why home care co-ops are a promising solution to the growing need for home care services. On December 5 Tracy will tell you more about this exciting opportunity, when Direct Care Alliance presents an informational session on what it takes to start a home care co-op.

Tracy is a caregiver, administrative coordinator, and board chair at Cooperative Care, a leading home care co-op based in Wautoma. She also serves as board chair at Direct Care Alliance. About 60 home care workers at Cooperative Care provide services for about 150 clients in Waushara, Winnebago, Green Lake, Adams, Fond du Lac and Marquette counties.
 
Join our conference call to hear Tracy explain what a co-op is, how it is governed and what the benefits are to caregivers and clients. She'll also answer your questions.
