Empowering Lives, Nurturing Futures.
Creating positive change and making a meaningful impact for women and children in our community.
We address the impacts of adversity.
Our approach engages with initiatives for growth.
The Duluth Center for Women & Children supports community initiatives to ensure that children living in poverty have abundant opportunities to lead economically secure and productive lives, regardless of the circumstances in which they are born and raised. The focus of the Duluth Center for Women & Children is to address the impact adversity has on children and families with attention to quality childcare & education, encouraging empowerment through building economic stability, and sustaining hope through supporting community safety.
Co-creating access to new opportunities
-
Entrepreneurial initiatives created right in the communities women live in enables them to reach personal goals and bring needed change to their community so it is a better place to live and raise children.
-
Embracing a thriving community by supporting educational opportunities that are meaningful and accessible.
-
Supporting children and families who live in Duluth’s Central Hillside by providing resources that combine quality care and education. In collaboration with partners in the AMI (Association Montessori Internationale) Montessori community, DCWC will guide the education and childcare initiatives towards sustainability and expansion. When Montessori principles are applied in the wider context of society, the possibilities are vast and all-encompassing.
Upcoming Event
Join us for Together at the Table, a community luncheon hosted by the ladies of DCWC/Food Forward to celebrate and connect the people who make our initiative possible. This event brings together our entire Food Forward family—a diverse community of staff, volunteers, sponsors, community partners, and meal kit/food box recipients. This meal is our way of saying thank you for pulling up a seat at our table and being part of this life-changing work.
