Onward Eden Prairie
Jan 30, 2024
About Onward Eden Prairie (from Eden Prairie Local News) A few years ago, a young woman in Eden Prairie experienced homelessness. Because of the time and effort it took to find a safe place to live, it was difficult for her to find work and complete her professional training to become a nurse. With the organization’s help, she was able to complete her nursing degree, secure employment in the field, and eventually transition to independent housing. About Tricia Wright (from Tricia Wright's Linked In page) Ever since I could work, I’ve worked in roles where I have had a deep impact on my community. Over the past decade, I’ve explored different ways of creating change — through political organizing, AmeriCorps, nonprofit work, consulting with mission-driven organizations and companies, and getting a graduate degree in business. I established Tricia Wright Consulting to continue creating change in my community through partnering with nonprofits and social enterprises and utilizing my business knowledge to help them grow. |
