Starting in April, we will be having a series of Workshops
and a Book Club on, well, Money and Sense. Both the Workshops and the Book Club are, of course, free and no RSVP is necessary.
The Workshops are a basic financial literacy program
developed by the University of California Co-Op and funded by a LSTA and
California State Library Grant. This information would be beneficial to anyone
trying to live on a budget and will help them plan for the future. The materials will also be
available in Spanish.
