Ashley Hagen Named Program Developer

We are pleased to announce Ashley Hagen as MNRAAA’s newest Program Developer. Ashley will work in Blue Earth, Nicollet, Brown, Watonwan, Sibley, Le Sueur, Waseca, Martin and Faribault counties.

Ashley has worked for MNRAAA for the past five years in the Senior LinkAge Line. She has previously held the roles of Case Aide, Information & Assistance Specialist, and, most recently, a Community Living Specialist in the Return to Community Department. Before joining MNRAAA, Ashley worked at Prairie River Home Care as Authorization Specialist and Recruiting Coordinator at assisted living and nursing homes in the Mankato area.

Ashley lives in Eagle Lake and enjoys live music, trying new food places, pickleball, pinball, traveling, and hanging out with friends.

When asked why she accepted the Program Develop position, Ashley stated, “I am excited to bring the experience and knowledge I gained through the Senior LinkAge Line to this new role. This position gives me an opportunity for continued professional growth.”

“MNRAAA is fortunate to have Ashley in this role. Through her time working on the Senior LinkAge Line side, she has seen the gaps in services. Now she can take that information to assist communities in expanding their ability to care for older adults and caregivers.” stated Jason W. Swanson, Executive Director.
