Nov. 11—The city of Santa Fe's Office of Economic Development is helping to organize two events for local businesses next week.

The first is a free, in-person workshop at the Santa Fe Children's Museum on Monday. Co-hosted by Family Friendly New Mexico, a nonprofit that helps businesses adopt family-friendly policies, the workshop aims to educate attendees on how to be a family-friendly employer and the business benefits of family-friendly policies.

The duo invites local businesses with various levels of family-friendly expertise to join and learn about how they can implement, expand or be recognized for their family-friendly policies. Businesses can register at tinyurl.com/bdz8m3k3.

On Tuesday, the city's Office of Economic Development will host Santa Fe Business 101, a free workshop geared toward helping those interested in starting a business in Santa Fe.
