Here's what some of the women are saying:

"I have attended many workshops--they are all the same, grab your coffee and stale muffin, sit down and get into the program. Women Connect workshops are different--they focus on getting to know others--a full breakfast is served and you actually have time to enjoy it and get to know the women at your table. Wendy listens to women, their issues and concerns of today. She brings in highly qualified speakers who are able to share practical advice which can be applied immediately. There are information tables set up for women in business to leave information for others. I love the fact that Dress for Success is represented at the workshops. This is the most effective workshop I have ever attended--I was able to apply the knowledge I gained immediately and make a positive change in my life. I highly recommend these workshops!!"
-March 2009, Regina participant

what is women connect

Workshops for women by women. Women Connect has been hosting half day breakfast workshops for the personal and professional development of women since the Fall of 2007. The 'vision' of 'Women Connect' is to provide a format whereby women can share common experiences, interact and learn about professional and personal development topics relevant to their work and life.  It is an opportunity for women from a wide variety of work place situations, business women, stay at home women; women from varied and diverse cultural backgrounds; women from various levels of an organization; and women of varying demographic groups to join together to interact, discuss and network. You get all of this and a delicious, full, hot breakfast!

A portion of the proceeds from 'Women Connect' workshops are donated to local charitable or non-profit organizations dedicated to the support, healing, education or development of women. In addition to the workshops, and the support of a local organization, Women Connect also supports local women in business.  Women Connect is about connecting women with other women and women supporting women.
