“This is the sixth year that we’ve partnered with ISAC and offered this workshop to area parents. We’ve found that many parents can be overwhelmed when applying for financial aid and scholarships. We wanted to be able to help guide through the process,” said Alexa Backus, Huntington Center Director.
The workshop is free and open to the general public. For more information or to register for the workshop, contact Huntington Learning Center at 630.551.4145.
