About

History

CWJC of Abilene began as part of the broader Christian Women’s Job Corps movement, a ministry of WMU (Woman’s Missionary Union) that started in 1997 to address the need for job skills training among women in underserved communities. The Abilene branch was established with the vision of offering hope, education, and spiritual guidance to women in the area, especially those facing difficult life situations, including unemployment, poverty, or lack of formal education.
