Come and play Gettin’ By, the game that puts your brain into poverty. You will see how your own thinking and decision-making respond to scarcity. After playing, you will learn the basics of the brain science. You will understand what some take for granted (“give no thought to”) and how that differs for people and children coping with poverty. With so many things crowding the brain, people in poverty respond to certain kinds of communication and not others. In this workshop, you will learn how to listen and respond effectively, improving your work with low-income clients and families.

Gettin’ By is accredited to provide continuing education credits to social workers, case managers, and Prevention Specialist Certification in Maine.
