 Paving the Road to Economic Self-Sufficiency Janet Marie had a job last year. She was working as a surveyor recording archaeological sites before they were destroyed by a wildfire. When the work was finished, she realized that her surveying skills weren’t sufficient to keep a job. Younger, more experienced crew members were kept on the project while those without formal GIS/GPS training were let go. She realized that she had to obtain formal training if she were to have a career – and the ability to take care of herself – again. With help from the Women’s Resource Center’s Educational Opportunity Program, Janet Marie is now enrolled at a local college. “ I am very thankful for the Women’s Resource Center grant that covered fall tuition at Pueblo Community College. Without this funding, I would not be able to continue my studies. My goal is to be well trained and able to obtain a full-time, permanent government position, so that I can take care of myself now and into the future. This wonderful program changed my life!” – Janet Marie Your support helps us When you support the Women’s Resource Center, you’re Empowering Women and Changing Lives by providing an open door, five days a week, to a safe, supportive environment, where women come to find the resources they need to take care of themselves and their families.
