The results demonstrate increased self-confidence, fueling early ambition and vision for an empowered future. At the completion of this program, participants will walk away with a plan and new set of tools and knowledge that will move you towards goal setting, self-confidence, and financial literacy. Participants will receive a $500 stipend at the completion of the program (contingent with attendance, having your camera on during meetings, and completion of intersession assignments).
