I hope you are enjoying our warm weather, but before you head outside in the sun, take a few minutes to register for an Exploring Motherhood workshop.

There are still spaces for Exploring Motherhood workshops in June. If you are interested in attending, now is the time to register. The following workshops are being offered in June:

Saturday, June 7 (10 a.m. to noon) – Who Am I, Now That I’m a Mom?
This workshop explores the changes that come with motherhood. Participants will have the opportunity to  explore personal questions about being a mother. There is also time for discussion with other moms.  The opportunity to talk with other moms is one of the highlights of this workshop according to participants.

Saturday, June 7 (1 p.m. to 3 p.m.) – My Maternity Leave is Ending – Now What?
Is your maternity leave ending? Are you unsure whether you want to go back to work? Are you thinking a career change might be what is best for you and your family?  This new workshop will explore the different aspects of career decision-making that apply to moms. Individual career advising and assistance with resume preparation and interview practice can be arranged.

I’m creating a workshop schedule for the summer, but if you’d like to arrange a workshop for your moms’ group, please contact me. We can arrange a workshop at a time and location that is convenient for your group.

The cost to attend is $25 per workshop or $40 for two workshops.  This means you can attend both workshops for $20 each, or you and a friend can attend the same workshop for $20 each.  The workshop space at the ASAC office should be nice and cool if the weather is warm.
