Workshops

At Pave Your Path, we strive to develop skills-based workshops that are relevant and accessible to our participants. With the expertise of our staff and volunteers, we are able to offer workshops on mindfulness, digital literacy, managing chronic stress, and more. Our interactive, group-learning style allows facilitators, volunteers, and participants to learn from each other, share experiences, and foster a supportive community.

Women’s Transformational Workshop Series: From Boundaries to Budgets

Women’s Transformational Series – From Boundaries to Budgets is a 15-hour, intensive workshop designed to give low-income women who have survived trauma the foundational knowledge to achieve self-sufficiency and emotional self-reliance. Boundaries to Budgets (B2B) guides participants, session by session, as they explore core elements of their personal identities, formulate personal and professional goals, and begin to dismantle the limiting beliefs that can create barriers to moving forward. The workshop examines both the mental and physical effects of chronic stress, anxiety, and trauma, and offers tools to assist in self-regulation. Throughout the series, participants are given opportunities for group discussion, experience-sharing, and self-reflection through guided journaling.

B2B sessions are offered roughly on a bi-monthly basis and consist of 4-5 three-hour classes with a meal provided. If you would like to participate in an upcoming session of B2B, please click here to fill out the interest form.

As part of our Learning Lab, we offer workshops on a variety of essential tech skills needed to navigate the workforce and everyday life. These workshops are interactive, and each participant can follow along with the lesson on a Learning Lab computer. In our Canva class, participants are introduced to the Canva design platform where they can learn to create social media content, presentations, flyers, professional resumes, and more. We also offer a Google Suite workshop where participants can learn the basics and build familiarity with Google apps such as Gmail, Google Drive, Docs, and Sheets. We are able to offer other tech workshops based on the needs of our participants.
