Getting Ahead Workshop

*Georgetown Office Only*

"Getting Ahead in a Just Getting-By World" is an incredible 16-session program that encourages participants to build resources and create a plan for getting out of poverty and "Getting Ahead."  

Through activities and group discussions, participants investigate: 

• Causes of poverty

• Hidden rules we all need to know

• Resources to improve life situations

• Strategies for writing a future story
  
  Pictured below, Mr. Green is a graduate of the Getting Ahead program. He has since used the tools learned through the Getting Ahead workshop to start a lawn care business.  Mr. Green comes from a history of generational poverty but has broken the cycle due to his hard work and perseverance. We're so proud of you!
