Bridges out of Poverty coming soon Fall 2022

If you find that you are stuck and have many barriers standing in your way, if you feel hopeless and in need of next steps to get out of your current situation. This free 12 week program is informal and interactive.  Conversations take place in a confidential, relaxed environment, described as a “kitchen table” like approach. 


The program starts with looking at “Picturing Your Life Now” to help you see where you are and look at the direction where you want to go.  


Examples of some of things we discuss in the workshop are: 

  • Change 
  • Understanding Poverty 
  • Self – exploration through a completion of a personal self-assessment 
  • Goal setting -Through this learning and the assessments, participants will be able to see a clearer path towards what their future may look like and set goals that will help them to move forward.

The Bridges out of Poverty workshop is offered to anyone interested in learning more about the social and economic impact that poverty has on individuals and our community. It allows those in Middle Class and Wealth to have a different lens perspective of what Poverty/instability actually looks like and gives tools to help change system barriers within the community.


In this full day workshop we look at....


  • Hidden Rules and how expectations can prevent relationships
  • Language and the many variations that those in different classes express themselves
  • The 4 causes of poverty
  • The righting reflex and how it prevents individuals from succeeding
  • whether or not we live in and work in a Bridges community
