Dear FSS participants (and community members),

Happy September Birthday to Sharon!  I hope your birthday is fabulous and you are finding a little time to take a step towards your goals.

While you are enjoying summer, check out these cool events in the area or click here for the full newsletter:

Career EXCELerate:  Career EXCELerate Wisconsin is a training program offered at no cost to individuals who want to find a career pathway but are struggling and would benefit from individual support.  At the end of the program, you would receive one of eight certificates to make yourself more employable and increase your take home pay.  Please see page 9 for more information.

Starting Point Program:  Are you a young woman looking for direction in the areas of education, employment, self-esteem, and a healthy support system? Or maybe you’re a mother of young children looking for a way to provide for your family? If either of these descriptions speak to you, maybe Starting Point is for you. Starting Point is a free 13 week program that will empower you in many areas of life and provide a stable learning environment for your children while you learn. I am so excited that Starting Point is now offered in Oshkosh.  Take a chance and sign up!  See page 15-16 for more details.  Classes start September 11th!

Please read the rest of this newsletter with educational, employment and community opportunities.  I wish you and your family a very Happy and Healthy September !   Let’s continue to strive to meet your goals and strengthen your self sufficiency.  And as always,  please let me know how I can help you by calling me at 920-424-1450 ext. 133 or emailing me at kayh@ohawcha.org.
