PRAY
Support a woman by being her prayer partner and encourager. You can also support the ministry through your consistent prayers.
TEACH
At DCWJC, Bible study—led by dedicated volunteers—is one of the key elements that makes our program unique. We welcome volunteers to lead our morning Bible studies and share God’s Word with our participants.
If you’re an experienced educator or business professional, consider teaching in our workforce readiness classes, where you can help women build the skills and confidence needed for success. We also offer opportunities for volunteer coaches in our GED Prep and English Learning Lab programs.
EMPLOYMENT CONNECTIONS
When women graduate from our Workforce Readiness & Life Skills program, they are equipped and eager to become employed. Corporations can provide direct-hire and internship opportunities for DCWJC alumni. Individual volunteers can help our graduates identify employment opportunities and make referrals to companies on behalf of our graduates. Our goal is to build a strong, collaborative employment network that supports women on their journey from dependency to self-sufficiency.
MENTOR
Everyone needs a cheerleader! Mentors are critical to the success of each woman enrolled in DCWJC. We provide volunteer mentors with training and support.
Church Support
There are many ways your church can be involved
Program Supplies
The generous in-kind contributions we receive from local churches include classroom materials and supplies, bus passes, and personal care products for our participants. These contributions play a vital role in helping women grow and thrive spiritually, professionally, physically, and personally. View our Amazon list for specific products that are needed.
Volunteer Groups
Church small group volunteer opportunities include providing meals for our participants, assembling welcome gifts for new participants, providing gift bags for women who earn their GEDs, completing special landscaping or facility improvement projects, or writing notes of encouragement to participants, staff, and faculty. These acts of service help create a welcoming environment where women feel supported and valued as they work toward brighter futures.
Making an Impact
Thanks to DCWJC my life has been changed for the best in more ways than I expected. I learned many things about myself. I took in as much as I could and began to practice what I learned and now have a full-time job. My family appreciates the change in me and I thank DCWJC for helping me during my transition. I can’t wait to visit and help pay it forward. Thank you to all of the volunteers that make DCWJC possible!
