Rideau Community Health Services (RCHS) is pleased to offer Bridges Out of Poverty, a full-day educational session facilitated by Suzie Johnson-Smith, International Bridges Out of Poverty Trainer and Consultant.
Bridges Out of Poverty provides participants with a deeper understanding of poverty and economic instability and how they can influence individuals, families, and communities. The session explores the causes of poverty, hidden rules of economic class, communication and relationships, and practical approaches that can help build stability, strengthen engagement, and support stronger communities.
This training is a valuable opportunity for community members, service providers, volunteers, and local partners to build a shared understanding of poverty and the experiences of people living with economic instability.
