Foundations of Home Management
Learn it. Build it. Fix it.
Program Overview
Foundations of Home Management is a 5-day hands-on skills workshop designed specifically for First Nations adults. Every participant receives a take-home tool kit and gains practical knowledge they can use immediately.
This workshop is different — it is focused on real home skills, not theory. It is supportive, non-judgmental, and practical, and it builds confidence, independence, and pride. Participants learn to repair, maintain, and organize a home, and create a family fire safety plan.
What participants take home: a fully equipped Home Skills Tool Kit and practical knowledge they can use immediately.
