Bridges out of Poverty is a unique training program that shifts the way we understand and approach poverty. Participants will explore values, systems, and strategies for addressing poverty as an individual, community member, and Manna supporter. Join us in learning how we can all collaborate to end poverty in the North Penn community!
The Bridges out of Poverty Training is delivered by Nadja Mummery who is a Bridges Certified Trainer. Nadja and Manna have used this framework, developed by AhaProcess, to help our volunteers, donors, staff, and partner agencies understand how to build a new approach to clients and customers who are from different economic class environments.
