Fresh Start Resources (Noble Woman Project)

NWP-US is a training program that provides assistance to women who are in need of developing life and marketplace skills. The program teaches life skills, occupational skills, and career planning while also cultivating spiritual growth and self-confidence. Any woman can benefit from this program; however, it is primarily targeted towards women who find themselves in a high-risk environment due to oppressive emotional or economic circumstances. NWP-US is devoted to assisting these women in developing the life and marketplace skills that are necessary to overcoming oppression. The program requires six hours of participation per week. Day and evening classes are offered. The NWP-US weekly training includes life skills management, individual counsel, the cultivation of individual talents and abilities, bible study, healthy relationship training, and career workshops designed to provide valuable job readiness training. Each woman is assigned a female Encouragement Partner whose primary purpose is to encourage and support her emotionally and spiritually throughout the duration of the program. Individuals also participate in the Noble Woman Cottage Industry as a way to help offset the cost of the program and give them a means to help contribute to other women’s lives throughout the world.
