On Wednesday, March 4<\/strong>, from 6 to 8:30 p.m.<\/strong>, the Portland Center<\/strong> will sponsor a free resource event, Re-Boot, for people experiencing economic distress due to changes in our economy. Cosponsored by the Graduate Department of Counseling\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s Individual & Family Matters Counseling Center and the Trauma Response Institute, it will take place in the Portland South <\/strong>building.<\/p>\n The event will host individuals and organizations offering information on a variety of topics, including where to turn for housing assistance, maximizing shopping dollars, job searching on the Internet, managing pet care on a tight budget, and helping children understand changes in the family’s living situation.<\/p>\n Room 155<\/strong> in the Portland South building will serve as the main information area. In a separate classroom, people will get a chance to view a variety of dollar-stretching video clips from the numerous consumer advice segments aired by local television stations. Five-minute neck and hand massages, as well as yoga exercises parents can teach their children, also will be offered.<\/p>\n The Portland South building will be open at 5:30 p.m.<\/strong> for participating organizations to set up their information tables. We\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll also set aside the back portion of the lobby for childcare. We\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re inviting all members of the George Fox community to participate according to your interest and availability.<\/p>\n If you have an idea for a table, are willing to help out with childcare, or would like to help usher guests from one arena to another, please contact Amy McClung<\/strong>, our volunteer coordinator, at ext. 6060.
