Once you’re with us, you’re never alone.
The New Opportunity School for Women is a community of women supporting each other. After you work through our program, you have an ongoing community with us. A sisterhood.
We connect you with the support you need to continue what you started here. And we offer resources like scholarships and dental funds.
