A group of nonprofits are teaming up to put on a series of workshops and classes for nonprofits slated to begin in September.

The nonprofits teaming up to put on the series are Hospital Authority of Rockdale County, the Rockdale Coalition for Children and Families, Rockdale County Government, Rockdale County School System, and United Way in Rockdale.
The cost is $30 per session, or $25 per session if paying in advance for all four sessions. The registration fee includes continental breakfast, lunch and educational materials. Agencies represented at all four sessions will receive a certificate of completion. All sessions will be held from 8 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. at the Rockdale Career Academy, 1064 Culpepper Drive, Conyers.
