HOW  WE  HELP

When a woman comes to the center for help, she will fill out an assessment application and be asked to sign and maintain the terms of a “mentor contract”. Clients will work one on one with a volunteer mentor to identify and target needs in their lives. The contract will include a “three strikes" clause, that states should a client fail to carry out her agreed upon training and coaching responsibilities three times, she will be removed from the client rolls and can not reapply for 3 months. This will encourage the client to be serious in their efforts to help themselves. We want to offer a hand up, not a hand out.

After discussion and evaluation, the client receives eight weeks of specialized classes and coaching sessions. The client will have daily access to her personal mentor for any help and counseling she may need.

The range of subjects taught include:

Money Management Parenting Job Interview Skills Job Retention Skills

Health and Nutrition Stress Management Spiritual Growth

We realize we can not be all things to all women, so we do partner with other agencies in our community to be sure that any woman who wants help, receives it. There are several agencies who have agreed to partner with us.
