Women Work! is dedicated to empowering women from diverse
backgrounds and assisting them to become economically
self-sufficient through job readiness, education, training, and
employment.
Our goal is to help women overcome barriers such as the lack
of full time work experience, dependent care, transportation,
and confidence to compete in the workforce, while aiding with
education of job related benefits, high paying wages and career
advancement.
Women Work! is also concerned about the lack of diversity in our
nation's workforce. Just 9% of engineers and 20% of information
technology professionals are women. Currently, our nation's
employers are experiencing difficulties hiring skilled workers,
particularly in science, engineering, and information technology
industries. Statistics forecast
that by the year 2020, 12 million jobs requiring postsecondary
education and training will go unfilled due to a shortage of
skilled workers.
