Our compassionate and dedicated professionals can help you get a fresh perspective on the things that matter most to you — life skills, independence, self-esteem and career opportunities — in a warm and caring atmosphere.

The Linda and Rudy Slucker NCJW/Essex Center for Women (Center for Women or CFW) provides holistic career and support services to women who must enter or re-enter the workforce to provide for themselves and their families. At the CFW, clients can access career counseling, resume writing and job interview skills, computer classes, grants for job certification training programs, hard and soft skills workshops, access to recruitment opportunities, health and wellness workshops, family law consultations and more, including referrals to partner organizations to meet a client’s outstanding needs. Our focus is to ensure every client has the resources necessary and is empowered to reach her employment goals. Due to the pandemic, all services are offered virtually and over the phone.
