Guests will witness a traditional graduation ceremony in which graduates don caps and gowns and are recognized with Pomp and Circumstance. Honored speakers at the event include representatives from the graduating class and volunteer and community partner, Lawrence Chappel from First Financial Bank.
Immediately following the ceremony will be a luncheon celebration. The event is open to the public and community members are encouraged to attend; however, the meal is reserved for only those individuals who RSVP in advance. RSVPs can be made here and must be received by March 6th.
For many LLC graduates, this is the first time they have completed something meaningful, making the ceremony much more significant. To qualify for graduation, a Candidate must remain substance use free, maintain attendance, secure employment, and demonstrate a commitment to transformational change. Transformational change is defined as shifting attitudes and behaviors that have prevented an individual from achieving a life of purpose and self-sufficiency.

Life Learning Center’s transformational skills program, Foundations for a Better Life, focuses on addressing five domains of life: Physical, Financial, Spiritual, Emotional, and Relational.
The curriculum assists low-income, unemployed, and underemployed individuals in identifying and overcoming the barriers they are facing. Through life skills training, career readiness programming, and support resources, LLC empowers individuals to transform the trajectory of their lives. Through their experience at Life Learning Center, individuals learn how to live life with purpose and intention, breaking negative cycles for themselves and their children.
