Workshop- "Healing Your Relationship with Money"
Michele Vallone, LCSW, Success Coach and EFT Practitioner
For many people, especially older adults, money can be a confusing and an overwhelming part of life. Whether you have a lot of it, or not much at all. Issues such as; overspending, debt, feelings of entitlement, feelings of scarcity, hoarding, the inability to receive money you deserve, or just inadequate financial planning are often tied to much deeper emotional issues. Unhealthy money beliefs learned early in life can now be changed.

The New Jersey Age-Friendly Advisory Council and the Department of Human Services have been tasked by Governor Murphy to promote inclusive communities for people of all ages. The Council is holding two virtual listening sessions to hear from older residents and those who care for them about what the state can do. With help from your testimonies, the Council will identify best practices for social participation, housing, transportation, and age-friendly employment; address disparities faced by the state’s diverse population of older adults; and shape the blueprint on how to advance age-friendly practices across the state. Help make New Jersey a better place for all ages by signing up today.
To provide written testimony, email: DoAS.AgeFriendlyNJ@dhs.nj.gov
