The Utah Women & Leadership Project invites you to join us for our first Spring workshop of the academic year.
Ditching debt is a powerful way to increase net worth, reduce stress surrounding money, and increase capacity to save and invest for your future. Net worth is a great big-picture measurement of your financial situation. It can take day-to-day work to increase your net worth, but there is a free tool available to help you become debt free! Join Melanie Jewkes, Utah State University Extension Professor, as she guides you on your transformational money journey.
