Take Back the Holidays

Are your holidays frantic? Stressful? Depressing? Well, they don’t have to be! Following the links from the Trust’s website, go to the Working Solutions site and take the online Web quiz, “Could Your Holidays Be More Rewarding?” and see if you could use some inspiration to turn the holidays into days full of meaning, togetherness and fun for you and your whole family.

Working Solutions also invites you to “Take Back the Holidays” by using their packet of articles filled with ideas to help you enjoy the holidays once again. The topics include:

  • What Money Can’t Buy: The Four Wisest Gifts You Can Give to Your Child
  • Give Yourself the Gift of Volunteering
  • Simplify the Holidays
  • Holiday Craft Ideas for Children of All Ages
  • Holiday 2000: Modern, Meaningful and Merry

The articles are available on the Working Solutions website (which you can access using the benefitstrust.org links page), or through one of the other methods available to you by:

  • Calling the automated Materials Request Line at 877-318-9400
  • E-mailing your request to: articles@wsi-or.com
  • Faxing your request to 503-246-1533 or 206-362-8081.

When using one of the above methods, be sure to include that your coverage is sponsored by the Trust, and your name and home address. Optional information you may include are home and work phone numbers, work site location and e-mail address.

Working Solutions provides counseling, resources, referrals and educational materials to help members and their families meet the demands of life and work.
