As we learn to talk THROUGH the issue of racism (instead of around it), we need to share a common language, and deepen our understanding by looking at events and institutions through a racial equity lens. One opportunity for such practice is our “Let’s Talk @ Lunch” program. Participants gather, have a cup of coffee or eat lunch, and YWCA provides a trained facilitator. All are welcome!

Before you sign up for training, please attend a “Meet and Greet” to learn more about Financial Coaching, and meet our facilitators and other potential volunteers and participants.

If you are interested in becoming either a volunteer financial coach or a participant in the Advancement Project, please come learn more at an upcoming “Meet and Greet.” You’ll get a general overview of the program—the time commitment and coaching philosophy — and will have an opportunity to mingle with other potential volunteers and participants.
