Enhancing and Empowering: Conversations for Positive Change
We started daily “by the community—for the community” webinars in English and Spanish in 2020 as a response to the entropy and social isolation of the pandemic. Now, our webinar series Enhancing and Empowering: Conversations for Positive Change fosters conversation, connection, and community. Currently, webinar presenters are providing free content to the Be Strong Families community both live and on demand. The presenters are also providing deeper-dive fee-based workshops on the same topics.
