According to Alison Rumler-Gomez, executive director of Community Action, the program is used to teach career readiness, financial literacy and give housing counseling as well as energy assistance to help people figure out why they're below the poverty line.

 

 

Rumler-Gomez adds that classes in DeWitt County start at the end of September and are filling up quickly. She indicates that you should contact them as soon as possible if you'd like a spot.
