“To me, what you and the Women’s Resource Center are doing right now is just as important as what the doctors and nurses are doing. . . I don’t think I or my children would be making it through this without you.” - Resource Coordination and

The Women’s Resource Center has been helping women navigate seemingly insurmountable obstacles since 1975—women watching the life they created with their families crumble as their financial stability is pulled out from under them through divorce, illness, and career setbacks. The Covid-19 pandemic has proved to be no different.
This is not new to WRC.
The board, staff and volunteers of WRC faced the pandemic
with the same resolve and resiliency that the women we serve demonstrate in their lives, ensuring that services continued without pause throughout the uncertainty and tumult of the past year.
• We connected women and girls to our services, to community resources and to supportive groups. We made those connections by phone, email, social media, and in person by word of mouth, helping them to navigate the maze of services to identify those most relevant to their unique circumstances.
• We provided volunteer, peer, and professional support so
that our clients could achieve enhanced self-awareness, increase their self-confidence and social support, experience improvement in mental and emotional well-being, and prepare to take the next step in their journey.
• We delivered knowledge, strengthening our clients’ skills in communication, conflict resolution, problem solving, decision making, coping and resilience, career planning and goal setting.
Yet, none of this would have happened without your contributions of time, skills, experience, and financial resources. On behalf of all those we served this past year, thank you.
