What is Christian Women's Job Corp?

The purpose of CWJC, a ministry of WMU, is to provide a Christian context in which women in need are equipped for life and employment; and a missions context in which women help women.

What happens in a typical CWJC program?

Women receive training in life skills and job readiness.  Computer skills are taught as well.  Each ministry is customized to meet the needs of the participants and their community.

What makes CWJC different from other job-readiness programs?

Each participant is involved in Bible study.  Participants are also matched with a trained Christian woman who will be a mentor as the participant travels the road from dependency to self-sufficiency.

Is there anything CWJC sites have in common?

Yes!  A trained coordinator leads each site.  The ministry is built on the purpose of CWJC and eight key elements: certification training, advisory council, needs assessments, networking, covenants, evaluation, a mentor for every participant, and Bible study.
