The Own Your Future initiative focuses on the need to increase the number of people using private financing options to pay for services such as personal care and household tasks that cannot be done because of age and disability. Without additional private financing, the state will see significant and unsustainable increases in public long-term care budgets.
The campaign is a public awareness effort that has been implemented by 26 states in hopes of raising awareness of the importance of planning now to identify personal and financial options to meet long-term needs. Our goal is to help you understand your choices and to take control of your future. The Lt. Governor Yvonne Prettner Solon will be there to give her testimonial on the importance of this initiative.
The presentation is brought to you by the Minnesota Government, sponsored by the Duluth Area Chamber of Commerce and Thrivent Financial for Lutherans.
