At the heart of every strong community lies a foundation built on knowledge and empowerment. In our recent OFCP Family Engagement Workshop Series, we embarked on a journey to strengthen the financial literacy of families, and the experience was nothing short of inspiring.

Led by the insightful guidance of Patrina Dixon, affectionately known as @itsmymoney_, our workshops delved deep into the nuances of financial management. From understanding the importance of savings to navigating the complexities of credit, each session was meticulously crafted to provide practical insights applicable to everyday life.

What truly made these workshops special, however, was the vibrant participation of our families. Together, we created an environment where questions were encouraged, and discussions flourished. It was heartening to witness parents and children alike engage enthusiastically, recognizing the value of financial education in shaping their futures.
