Last week, we held our first (of many) Community Classes. This workshop on budgeting providing parents the opportunity to learn and share about their own challenges with budgeting, while also providing tangible next steps to help save for the future. We believe that knowledge is power, and providing safe spaces for parents to build skills will directly impact their ability to stay stable.
