SUMMARY:Guidance & Support Circle for Justice-Impacted Families (Times in PT)
DESCRIPTION:This is more than your typical support meeting and the format is difference.  This is an opportunity for anyone with a justice-impacted loved one who is seeking guidance\, understanding\, and a safe place to ask questions. The group is facilitated by Jon\, a formerly incarcerated individual and trained paralegal\, who shares insights and suggestions based on his lived experience and knowledge of both the court system and the prison system. While Jon offers helpful perspectives and practical information\, the meeting is a discussion space—not a source of legal advice or representation. It is designed to provide support\, clarity\, and connection for families navigating the challenges of incarceration. \nDisclaimer: All information shared in this meeting is for general discussion only and should not be considered legal advice. \n4:30pm PT | 5:30 MT | 6:30 CT | 7:30 ET \nClick Zoom Link

SUMMARY:Online Safety - Scams 101 (Times in PT)
DESCRIPTION:Join us for Cybersecurity Safety – Keep your Online and Internet presence Safe!\n5pm PT | 6pm MT | 7pm CT| 8pm ET\nZoom Link\nFriday\, October 9\, Scams 101: Don’t Take the Bait > Covering the lingo\, what scammers want\, the tricks they use\, and how to stay protected\nPhishing\, smishing\, vishing\, spoofing — the vocabulary of online fraud can feel like a foreign language. But you don’t need to speak “tech” to protect yourself; you just need to know what you’re looking at. \nIn this friendly\, jargon-free session\, we’ll introduce the main types of scams in plain English\, with real-world examples of each: fake delivery notices\, tech support calls\, romance scams\, prize and lottery cons\, and more. No prior experience needed — just bring your curiosity and any questions you’ve been wondering about. \nYou’ll leave able to name what you’re looking at\, which is the first and most important step to avoiding it. \nFirst in the three-part Scam Smart series. Come to one session or all three. (10/9\, 16\, & 26) \nFriday\, October 16\, Scams 102: Security Myth Busting > Covering common security apps\, free vs paid options and which ones are essential\nOnce you know the types of scams out there\, the next step is catching them in the wild — before you click. \nIn this hands-on session\, we’ll look at real and fake messages side by side and practice the simple checks that reveal a fraud: how to see where a link really goes before you tap it\, how to spot lookalike web addresses and mismatched sender names\, and how to recognize the urgency and fear tactics designed to rush you into a mistake. \nBring a device if you’d like to follow along\, or just come to watch and learn. No technical background required. \nSecond in the three-part Scam Smart series. Missed the first session? You’re still welcome — each workshop stands on its own. \n  \nMonday October 26\, Scams 103: Outsmarting the Scam > Covering what to do immediately if suspected of being hacked and how to stay safe long-term\nSpotting scams is half the battle. This session is about the other half: building simple defenses so you’re protected even on a bad day. \nWe’ll cover what actually makes a password strong\, why reusing the same one everywhere is the single riskiest habit\, and how tools like password managers and two-factor authentication make your life easier and safer. Then we’ll turn to your home: securing your Wi-Fi\, the hidden risks of public hotspots\, and why keeping devices updated matters. \nYou’ll leave with a short\, do-it-at-home checklist so you can put everything into practice. \n
