Intro to the Power of Story class
Every year around this time people make New Year’s Resolutions to make positive changes in their lives. However, a research study found that 23 percent of people abandon those resolutions by the end of the first week of January, and 43 percent quit by the end of the month (Ohio State University). There’s a three-session class titled “Intro to the Power of Story” offered through Milaca Community Education on April 23 from 6 – 7:30 p.m., and May 7, 14, and 21 from 6 – 7:30 p.m. that instructs people on how to do it.
