We had a great day with an amazing group of people at our first Build Your Own Resources for a Better Life workshop that was held on Thursday, April 25, 2024. Participants learned skills in the following areas and took home a “tool kit” to help them sustain the skills on their own: Budgeting/Financial Planning/Making Sound Financial Decisions, Resume Writing/Interviewing Skills, Homemade Cleaning Products, Indoor Gardening, Basic Sewing and Repairs, Creating Healthy Meals on a Budget, and Positive Affirmations/Self Talk. The tool kits were funded in part by a grant from The Community Foundation of Westmoreland County and The Pittsburgh Foundation. There was a lot of learning, laughter, and friendships made! If you weren’t able to attend the April workshop, contact your TCM, CPS, or SC for more information on the June and September workshops.
