Prescott/Nevada County Library Summer Feeding Program
Just as learning does not end when school lets out, neither does a child’s need for good nutrition.
Summer meal sites are frequently held at libraries, camps, churches, or schools. While kids receive a meal at the library, they can also stay active and continue learning with the summer reading program and books. The Arkansas NO KID HUNGRY program gives them the opportunity to eat a nutritious meal and stay on track during the summer so that they don’t fall behind when they return to school.

Financial Planning and Budgeting
The Prescott/Nevada County Library is offering a course in financial literacy. We all want financial security. We all want to make enough money to support our lifestyles, raise and educate our children, save for a wonderful retirement, and have fun along the way. So to achieve it all, what will help you more, having a financial plan or a budget? The answer is both!
Budgeting? Financial planning? I don’t get it! Aren’t they the same thing?
Personal finance education begins with knowing how to plan. Learn strategies for categorizing your expenses, tracking your spending, and putting together a new budget.
This course is a great starting point for anyone who feels overwhelmed by all of the bills and paperwork standing between them and financial freedom. The class will teach you where to start, how to organize your spending, and what things you should prioritize when building your perfect budget.

Money Management
Someone once said, “To err is human; to blame the next guy is even more so.” Mistakes, rotten timing, problems, bad luck! It is so easy to blame someone or something else. It is especially easy to blame someone else when we don’t have enough money to do what we want. Our job, our partner, our parents, our government, or our children at one time or another may have been on our “Top Ten to Blame” lists for being broke. Enough of that…The blame game is over. With these budgeting and money management tools, you’ll soon be in charge.
The course sets you free from blame by teaching how to take control of your finances and those internal thoughts and emotions that can prevent you from being in control of your cash.
