The Backside Learning Center (BLC) was created to support equine workers and their families as they pursue their personal and professional goals. It offers a unique mix of training and support — from ESL, GED, computer and citizenship classes to social services — to help track workers reach their highest personal potential.

More than that, BLC provides a social focal point. BLC provides a place where workers can meet, talk, laugh and support one another as they cope with a demanding life far from home. It also provides cultural experiences in the forming of outings, festival visits, city tours, potlucks, movie nights, game nights and group meals out.

In short, BLC is more than a school. For many BLC clients, it's their away-from-home community, even their family.

Post Parade Wines is proud to support the work of BLC. To find out more or to make a contribution, visit their website: www.backsidelearningcenter.org
