to identify and champion up to ten Nature Based Solution projects in the Canoe River Aquifer area to protect this critical drinking water source and prepare the region for climate change. Public input is important in selecting these projects to better understand
local concerns around these issues. The Southern Regional Planning and Economic Development District (SRPEDD) is a partner helping with this effort and is sponsoring a community questionnaire to help identify areas that could most benefit from a Nature Based

that we are really excited about called the Friendly Caller Program. The purpose of this program is to spread positivity and prevent social isolation. This will be especially important this holiday season! Those signed up will receive a weekly call from one
of our volunteers, where you can share stories or experiences, chat about current events, or just make small talk. This is also a great way to get to know some fellow seniors in town. If you are interested in enrolling to receive calls, please call the COA
at 508-230-0690.<o:p></o:p></span></span></span></span></span></p>
