WOMEN LEAD

Women Lead is excited to kick off the first cohort this fall with our Job Readiness program!


Women Lead is a program run by women for women that empowers immigrant women to achieve their professional, entrepreneurial, or educational goals through a series of FREE expert-instructed workshops.


Our Job Readiness program is designed to prepare participants to enter and succeed in the workforce with confidence, skills, and support to thrive in their chosen careers.


Classes will be running for 10 weeks from October 17th - December 21st with
a peer check-in and a Meet Your Mentor event to follow in the new year.
