Did you know? April is Financial Literacy Month! Understanding your finances and how to make ‘work’ for you are all parts of becoming an advocate for yourself.
Hear from SF program coordinator, Lhaga: “Financial literacy is huge! It’s so important for every young person to understand the importance in creating a budget, or how to save. We are equipping our youth advocates with the necessary tools to advocate for yourself, and that starts with being paid!”

☀️⚾️ Last #WellnessWednesday, CW staff spent an afternoon in the sun watching the SF Giants win at Oracle Park!
It was a great experience shared amongst coworkers and our loved ones. Thank you to our incredible restorative practice, administrative, and leadership teams for making this possible! 💌
Each #WellnessWednesday servces as a reminder that we can’t pour into others without pouring into ourselves first! As service providers, it’s so important to make sure we prioritize our mental health and set time aside to unwind and connect!
