The Bridges Out of Poverty Seminar is designed to develop understanding across social and economic groups.
Cultures have norms and we all respond based on the hidden rules of our upbringing. This seminar provides an understanding of the hidden rules for individuals in poverty, middle class, and wealth with the goal of providing avenues of success for all. Individuals who work regularly with those living in poverty or want to advocate for those in poverty will benefit from this training.
The Bridges Out of Poverty seminar sponsored by Crisis Control Ministry is a 4-hour session held four times a year. It is open to all who are interested in attending. There is no fee to attend, but you must register ahead of time [[on our Events page (link to Events page)]]. We strongly recommend that you read Bridges Out of Poverty: Strategies for Professionals and Communities by Ruby K. Payne, Ph.D. before attending, but prior knowledge of the book is not mandatory.
Contact Sydney Angel at sangel@crisiscontrol.org if you are interested in attending, have any questions, or would like to purchase the book for $10 at Crisis Control Ministry.
