Thank you, Misty Green, for allowing our students to learn from you!

We are excited to welcome a new student to Nora Ann’s who is interested in learning about retail!

Nora Ann’s continues to work with our local students through the Community Work Transition Program (CWTP). Each week, we work on practical skills and give students the opportunity to learn in a real workplace setting.

We love being a small part of helping our students learn, grow and gain confidence. 💕

This is what community is all about—helping one another.
