"ASSIST made a big difference in my life. I not only found help, I found a friend. Thank you!" ~ Care Receiver, Kalispell

Each month staff and Volunteers participate in training while getting acquainted with the other members on our team. The training agenda varies from month to month. We may invite a speaker to share with us about community resources, services and programs. Sometimes we review case studies to hone our skills in assessing the needs of our Care Receivers and brainstorming for solutions. It’s a fun way to stay connected with one another while increasing our ability to help our neighbors!
