RFTS/ Partners in Prevention Monthly Lunch get-together

Wednesday, February 18th, a group of about 10 got together for lunch and discussion. This is a blend of staff and clients (in the RFTS program and the Homeless Student Liaison program) who meet over lunch and discuss a topic or just exchange resources or ideas and offer mutual support. Gwen Crum, from the WVU extension returned from the previous night, to again, give some information about nutrition, menu planning, economical shopping, and the classes she does in the community. The participants asked questions of her, as to how the classes go, the possibility of having a class through our FRC and similar topics. Today, only one RFTS client came; we have a sporadic attendance, but it is well noted, that the staff feel these are beneficial for exchanges of information, ideas, and support. The need to steadily offer these opportunities is important to us. The meal was delicious, (I was one of the few who had both meals, with the same menu, but it included my dietary preferences!!!) A contented time was had by all.
