Community Events

This is an ONLINE ONLY class.  Have you ever seen or heard someone harass, bully, or threaten another person, and wished you knew what to say or do?  Most of us have.  We are all much more likely to be a bystander than a participant or victim of hateful and hurtful words and behavior.  Green Dot teaches safe and proven-effective Bystander Intervention techniques that every member of a community can use, both proactively to change our culture for the better, and reactively to reduce harm.  None of us can do everything, but each of us can do our part to make Lewiston-Auburn a safer and more welcoming community.  Any folks who have already attended a workshop are also warmly welcomed.  We find we learn something new almost every class and you might have had some experiences doing Green Dotss that would be helpful.

This tuition-free one-session workshop will help you decide if self-employment is the right choice for you.  This class covers the pros and cons of owning your own business, the steps needed for start-up, the major elements of a business plan, and the many resources available to help you succeed.

Whether you are navigating recent changes, looking fro a job, starting a business, or simply want to be more confident, join this class to assess your confidence and learn concrete tools to help you build your confidence and keep it strong.

This is an ONLINE class only.  Remember the 3 Ds?  Direct, delegate...and what was the third one?  What might you say or do if you hear a racial epithet in a store while shopping with your child?  Or if a friend in a new relationship sarts missing zoom meetings?  If you've taken a previous Green Dot training, you can sign up for a free and interactive booster session where we'll brainstorm and practice responding to scenarios araiing in our community.
