Twin Cities Rise - empowerment training

Friday, March 13

Several weeks ago Father Michael O'Connell told us that with the first group of women admitted to Jeremiah, nearly everyone washed out.  They needed a better way to prepare women to enter the program.

They looked to Twin Cities Rise that had developed this empowerment training program. This training helps people change the way they view themselves in relation to the world. It helps them start to understand that everyone is born with the core value that they are important.  Women go through the empowerment training as part of the pre-admission process. Twin Cities Rise has also trained all of the Jeremiah staff in empowerment.

Twin Cities Rise views this training as central to their success in upgrading the employment skills of men and women they work with.     So we will hear more about this powerful tool from Cy Yusten, executive director of Twin Cities Rise, and consider how this training might be extended to more families with small children.
