Another Great Session for our fall program last Saturday!
We spent time building up confidence, learning what it means to be a confident person, and sharing what has helped us in the past when we were feeling shy.
This Saturday will be about change management!

Part 2 of #IVMDay25 appreciation is something that everyone always likes to hear: That they are important, and how they affect you!
This can be as simple as keeping you on track for volunteering, to giving you an awesome reference, to a gesture or token of appreciation they gave you!
