The workshops are open to any Illinois resident and are free. Registration is required by calling 309-788-6311 or emailing info@growthcorp.org. The workshops will be offered by a hybrid style offering a very limited in-person opportunity with a maximum of five participants. The workshop will also be in an online webinar format for registrants who wish to participate remotely. “Due to the success and response, we have received when we launched the Personal Growth Series in January, we are hosting the event again in April and hoping to do the same in July and October. As a HUD-approved housing counseling agency, GROWTH helps its clients increase their knowledge and ability to repair their credit, create a budget, purchase a home, and save for the future,” comments James Jones, Housing Manager, for GROWTH. “We’ve gotten a lot of inquiries from those wanting advice on what to do with their stimulus checks and how to ensure they are making the right choices based on their individual circumstances. This unique partnership between Bridge Investment Community Development Corporation, a Community Development Financial Institution (CDFI) and Project NOW, a regional Community Action Agency, is an innovative way for participants to receive a lot of valuable information and learn about opportunities that will help them build a better financial future.” The second quarter, three part series workshops are scheduled to begin Monday, April 5, 2021 from 6:00-7:00 p.m. CST. Registration is required in advance by calling (309) 788-6311 or emailing info@growthcorp.org. Workshops are listed below. A link to the webinar will be provided upon registration confirmation. |
