9 years ago

HOULTON — New Ventures Maine will offer two workshops to help participants gain the skills and confidence to stretch their money, pay bills and reduce debt. Budgeting Basics will be held on May 5, and on May 12, Clean up Your Credit is slated.

Suzanne Senechal-Jandreau, trainer for the class, noted, “Managing your money is scary when you don’t feel in control. Regardless of how much money you have or what stage you are in your life, these workshops can help you take charge of managing your own money and paying down your debt.”

Budgeting Basics will take place on Thursday, May 5, from 4:30-6:30 p.m., with Clean up Your Credit on Thursday, May 12, from 4:30-6:30 p.m. Both sessions will be held at the Houlton Higher Education Center.

These workshops are open to women, men and couples of all ages and incomes. Pre-registration by May 2 is required for one or both workshops, and there is no fee for the training.
