The rest of the episode we focus on Tricia's new role as Director of Community Employment Development and the Personal Empowerment Training course that she has created for the community.
"Personal Empowerment Training is for all human beings. It allows everyone to respect and honor the inherent value within ourselves and for each other. Rooted in emotional intelligence, participants will learn 40 concepts such as beliefs, self-esteem, empathy, active listening, and managing conflict. This 24-hour cohort-based learning
experience incorporates high levels of activity and engagement. Participants will experience increased knowledge, practice, and application that encourage new perspectives and habits. The common theme for this program is building HOPE for one's future."
The Spring 2023 training registration is now open thru February 14th. Classes begin on February 21st. The cost is $450 per person and is limited to 20 participants.
