Keeping Children Safe: Child Abuse and Neglect Curriculum for Early Childhood Professionals
The training includes techniques to give child-care providers the information they need to not only

education, social connections, and concrete supports in their communities. Questions for discussion, 
ways to take action, and suggestions are all part of this experience. 
The event is FREE and limited to the first 25 registrants.

Play SPENT
We're going to challenge the way you think about poverty and homelessness.

Work hard. Do the right thing. Homelessness is something that will never happen to me. Sometimes, all it takes is one life-changing experience to land you on the streets: a job loss, death of a loved one, divorce, natural disaster, or serious illness.spent logo 

Next thing you know, a chain of events sends your life spiraling out of control...

How would you cope? Where would you go? What would you do? Figure something out, right?

We invite you to take the challenge... Play SPENT
