Her background in recognizing community needs and her belief in collaboration & collective action being keys to maintaining vibrant and resilient communities are the tools she offers to CORE and all she engages with. Mary is a poet of sorts, telling the story of Northern Wisconsin life, and using it to compel support in maintaining our rural way of life while advocating for the quality of living we all hope to grow old with.
