In conjunction with HomePlace, the national Women’s Missionary Union (WMU) recently approved LBCH as a Christian Women’s Job Corps site. The Christian Women’s Job Corps of Monroe will serve as another strategic ministry of the Children’s Home and will be offered at no cost to qualified participants.
The philosophy behind CWJC is that every woman deserves
a chance to develop her God-given talents, to develop her skills for employment, to develop skills for successful living, and to reach her goals with God’s help.
HomePlace moms will be able to access a vast array of training through CWJC. CWJC will also equip women in the Monroe community through job-readiness and computer classes, Bible study, and mentoring.
CWJC will work in partnership with HomePlace with the goal of helping families obtain the skills needed to move from dependency and despair to a future of self-sufficiency and hope.
