Goal$ and Assets: Family Conversations About Money
You already have experiences and strengths around money. This no-cost series focuses on those as a starting point for building more financial knowledge to support your family’s well-being.
During this six-week series, you’ll learn how your experiences before age 7 shaped how you think about money. You will learn new strategies for managing your finances, share your own experiences, ask questions, and talk about activities you can do at home with your child – because your child’s ideas about money are being shaped right now!
This class begins on July 23rd and runs through August 27th, meeting every Tuesday. This class will be offered virtually and is open to current NCHS families statewide! Participants can use this class to earn Recognition through Mobility Mentoring. Graduates of the series will receive access to an ongoing support group to continue to learn and build skills.Goal$ and Assets: Family Conversations About Money

Lifebooks are a record of a child's adoption story. Created over time, and with the child's input, they are more than a baby book. Lifebooks are a place where adoptive parents can record details (pictures, graphics, artwork, memorabilia, etc.) related to your child’s life story. These details honor the child's life and should include the good, the uncomfortable, and sometimes the very challenging. This workshop will explore different components of a typical lifebook and encourage you to create one with your adopted child. Additional resources and supports are included. This workshop is eligible for CEU's. This training will be held online via Zoom and is open to individuals statewide.
Self-Care and Mindfulness (Virtual)
This workshop is eligible for CEU's. This training will be held online via Zoom and is open to individuals statewide.
Separation, Grief and Loss (Virtual)
Separation, Grief and Loss are elements of every adoption story. In this workshop, you will explore how these topics are interconnected, how children may view their own adoption at different levels of sophistication as they age, and how parents can help them navigate through. An emphasis is placed on recognizing that adoption isn’t a one day event/experience, that helping your child know and own their story can be empowering and affirming…if sometimes challenging and a bit scary. This workshop is eligible for CEU's. This training will be held online via Zoom and is open to individuals statewide.
Self-Care and Mindfulness (Lincoln)
This workshop is eligible for CEU's. This training will be held in-person at our Lincoln office.
