Our Program

Relationships are the foundation of our program. Transformation happens through investment in relationships. The key relationship will be developed during mentoring.

Program participants will be matched to a small team of mentors, called Journey Partners, who will walk alongside of her, providing encouragement, feedback, and connection to the community. There will be a number of opportunities to meet each other and and every effort will be made to ensure compatibility.

Small groups of 3-4 participants will communicate regularly with a small team of mentors. Meetings and activities will be scheduled based on each group's preferences.

For particular situations where a participant may request to meet with a mentor one-on-one, she is welcome to make such a request.

We seek to individualize our activities as much as possible, therefore each woman will have the opportunity to develop her own learning plan based on her particular interests, strengths, needs, and goals.

Getting to know our participants starts with the application stage during which we will meet with each applicant to find out what her goals are, provide details of the activities and purpose of the program, and discuss mutual expectations.

The applicant can then make an informed decision about whether to participate in the program and whether it would be a good fit for her. We want her to have a sense of security and level of comfort in knowing specifically what our purpose is in working together with her.

We all know that having a sense of meaning, belonging, and purpose affects how we "do life" and how we handle the challenges that we all face at one time or another.

Being able to anchor her self-identity and self-worth as a beloved child of God, changes her understanding of her value and purpose. With this truth as her framework, her perspective on her life story becomes one of hope and strength because being so loved and wanted by God, shapes who she wants to be and how she wants to live out her life.

Through the application of Biblical principles in our program, and discussion-based topical Bible studies, she is encouraged to discover God's purpose for her life.

Having access to necessary resources to help with life's challenges, developing healthy mindsets and habits, and key skill sets, along with a strong supportive relationships can make the difference between struggling and flourishing.

Our workshops cover a wide range of topics, such as personal finance/money management, boundaries in relationships, being a successful renter, parenting, digital literacy, and more.

Whether a woman needs to find a job or wants a better job, we offer training for finding a job, keeping a job, and gaining eligibility for promotions.

For those who don't know what kind of job or career would be best suited for her, we offer career interest assessments and guidance.

If specialized workforce training is required for particular career fields, we will assist with accessing the resources.

Since there are some activities that are most effectively done on an individual basis, and other activities that are best done in group settings, we offer our program as a dual track so that participants spend time one-on-one with staff during the week, as well as having time to interact as a group on designated Sunday afternoons.

Each participant will set a schedule with mentors and other staff to meet during the week, to do activities on a personalized basis such as creating a budget, writing resumes, developing career pathways and action plans.

Group workshops are conducted on two Sunday afternoons per month, for topics such as workplace communications, parenting, customer service, understanding credit, etc. - topics which are beneficial to discuss in groups.
