From extremeresponse.org/our-work/vocational-training ↗About this program
ER and Grace Church of Glendora (Calif.) operate a community development program that helps women and families extricate themselves from economic hardship, low education and a lack of opportunity.
Pathway For Hope transforms lives by providing holistic empowerment opportunities for the Taytay community in Metro Manila.
Hundreds of women have been trained in advanced sewing, massage and business basics. We also work closely with TESDA – a Filipino agency that provides technical education and certification. A TESDA certificate is a huge plus in gaining employment.
In addition, Pathway organized Unity Savings Group, a savings and credit cooperative with more than 100 participants. This cooperative helps women buy products in bulk, take out loans, get interest on their savings, and even start their own small businesses.
