September 20, we had a great event: Life-Fulfillment: Owning Your Purpose, Power, and Profits! presented by Lequita Brooks, LCSW. It was exhilarating and energizing! We learned all about owning your purpose and asking yourself those pivot questions to achieve your goals!
We have many exciting events coming up! In October, we will have “The Side Hustle Social worker event!” You won’t want to miss it!
We’d also like to welcome our new program chair Lequita Brooks and MSW student Representative Laura Belluccia!!
Everyone enjoyed the Meet and Greet, October 2023 at the The Local Miramar.
