Parents and students can hear from Gloria Guzman, senior Economic and Financial Education Specialist for the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta-Miami Branch, who will provide information on investing in what’s next after high school.

The workshop will explain and provide direction on completing the F.A.F.S.A., comparing school costs, and obtaining financial aid. Attendees will receive a workbook to assist with career exploration.
