Announcements



On September 14, 2009, Catholic Charities will begin our 7 week "Out Of Poverty" (OOP) program.

"Out of Poverty" is a program of personal change. "Out of Poverty" affirms that change is possible. By following a step-by-step process within a group context, participants take responsibility for their life and choices, commit to learn and practice new behavior, and finally share experiences and thus find a road to a more prosperous life. In letting go of unproductive thoughts, feelings and behaviors and replacing them with new ones participants move towards a better quality of life.

If you have clients you feel could benefit from this program please encourage them to enroll by contacting Ron Madsen (Rmadsen@cc-doj.org ) or Jane Tyschenko ( jtyschenko@cc-doj.org). There is no fee for this program which is open to all.

Please feel free to post this flyer and registration form (or make duplicates for distribution) at your location.

"Out of Poverty" classes will be held on 7 consecutive Mondays, from 9:30am -
12:30 am, starting September 14, 2009 at Catholic Charities, 26 W St Charles Rd, Lombard, IL, 60148. No class will be held on October 12, 2009 in observance for the Columbus day Holiday. Baby sitting will be available.

Please feel free to make copies or to post this bulletin.
