Hi Ellen,
The Benefit Bank has recently completed the third quarter training schedule for the months of July, August and September. I was wondering if you could please send out a copy to your contact list? I’ve attached a copy of the schedule to this email.
The Ohio Benefit Bank is program that helps the low- and moderate-income families of Ohio sign up for benefits using our online software. It is a free program that allows our clients to electronically sign up for benefits like food stamps and heating assistance without any paperwork. The trainings teach volunteer counselors about the software and certify them to help our clients apply online.
Thanks!
