Small Steps Lead to Big Changes

Home

A new beginning is possible.

Appalachian women are under-resourced, but resourceful. Often overworked and overwhelmed, but resilient. They sustain their families and communities.

The New Opportunity School for Women provides a place for under-resourced women to build confidence and skills to make changes they want to see in their lives. All of our programs are free.

“I learned in these classes that I am and have always been
everything I ever needed to be.”

—Gina Meyer, NOSW 2022 Graduate

We support women
along each step of the journey.
