Tackling the Tough Skills

Tackling the Tough Skills is a life skills training curriculum for hard-to-reach populations. Through dynamic, fun, interactive exercises, adults or teens learn valuable techniques to apply to both work and life. Soft Skills aren't "fluff" - they're life skills many take for granted, yet they are critical when a person doesn't have them. Skills like attitude, responsibility, communication and problem solving are all addressed. The program was designed to help adults transition from welfare to work. In this video, meet Rosilee Trotta, the author of the program, who conducts training sessions so that others can teach the Tough Skills curriculum.
