Self-Reliance Resources

Quarterly Welfare Workshops

Each workshop focuses on a core principle of effective welfare and self-reliance leadership. We invite councils to attend together—ward councils, stake councils, or welfare/self-reliance working groups—so they can learn, discuss, and apply principles as a unified body. All sessions begin at 7:00 PM.

• December 17 – Implement Solutions (Implementing solutions requires inspired action, clear communication, and steady follow-through by leaders. Simply assigning tasks typically isn’t enough—lasting impact comes from training, ongoing involvement, and follow-up by the leadership). [Register Here]
