51. Kristen Carr with 'People Helping People' and Teaching Low-Income Women How to Gain Good Employment
Send us a text‘People Helping People’ is a non-profit organization that likes to say they are often in the business of building confidence. They help primarily women and single mothers gain and keep good employment so they can provide for themselves and their families. My guest on the podcast this week Kristen Carr is the Community Outreach Coordinator, and she shared that many of the women and single mothers that come into their program have gone through hard and traumatic experiences. But through the mentoring and coaching those women receive at People Helping People, they learn to see the talents and skills they already have to offer, and build on those as they seek to gain meaningful employment or start a career.This organization truly believes that one of the best ways to help children and families out of poverty, is to empower women and give them the confidence and skills they need to be successful in the workforce. Listen to the podcast to learn more about People Helping People and also hear some great stories of women who have found success through their programs.Links mentioned in the episode:People Helping People WebsitePeople Helping People InstagramPeople Helping People FacebookFollow the podcast on social media:Do Something More InstagramDo Something More FacebookDo Something More YouTube
