New Opportunity School for Women Inc
Appalachian Women's Work Collaborative
A multi-state employer collaborative that strengthens workplace culture and practices so Appalachian women are hired, supported, retained, and advance through training and coordinated partner services.
Appalachian women are a deep, overlooked talent pool, yet many workplaces are not designed to support retention and advancement amid real-life responsibilities. This project will equip employers across Appalachia with practical tools to strengthen workplace culture, train supervisors, and coordinate trusted supports. Led by the New Opportunity School for Women and regional partners, the project will increase job retention, wage growth, and advancement while helping employers build a more stable workforce.
