Our Vision is to advance positive change in the lives of women, their families and the community, one woman at a time. 0 0 859536 17423 34900 In 1986, two Kansas City philanthropists and visionaries, Beth K. Smith and Marjorie Powell Allen, had a profound idea of how to "help women help themselves", and they worked to form the Women's Employment Network (WEN). With the involvement and support of hundreds of volunteers, donors, and dedicated staff, WEN has grown from a single classroom at Pioneer College to a 10,000 square foot facility in the heart of downtown Kansas City. Over the last thirty-five years, WEN has continued to work toward the mission and vision of its founders and has played an important role in the professional growth of women in Kansas City. At no cost to the women served, WEN has graduated hundreds of women from its programs while assisting thousands more through support services and community referrals. In the 2022-2023 program year, WEN served: 1,376 unduplicated clients, 908 of those being new clients. Women with a wide variety of backgrounds turn to WEN. Due to the ever-changing nature of economic forces, more and more women walk through our doors with significant work experience and who have achieved higher levels of education. As the demographics of our clients shift, our experienced program staff make the necessary adjustments to meet their needs. However, the primary focus of WEN's programming continues to be un- and under- employed women who are experiencing poverty. WEN receives referrals from area domestic violence shelters, therapists and counselors, community service and referral partners, and word-of-mouth recommendations. WEN has also recently experienced an increase in women who find out about WEN through social media and internet searches. Our Clients: 74% below the federal poverty level, 73% of clients are single or divorced, 51% identify as a person of color, 66% are Missouri residents and 34% Kansas. In 2022-2023 WEN had the following program outcomes: $19.10 average hourly full-time wage reported (WEN's goal is $12.75). In 2022-2023 WEN had the following financial coaching outcomes: 191 financial clients and provided employment referrals for 150 positions. WEN was able to successfully transition to a virtual format during the pandemic. WEN now offers online and in person workshops. Both virtual and in person continue to gain in attendance. 0 0 0 WEN on the Road: Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, WEN on the Road was on hold from July to September of 2022. The program resumed during 4th quarter of 2022. WEN had community outreach to almost 100 agencies during the fiscal year. WEN on the Road remains an option, however, client engagement for all agencies is challenging post-pandemic. it may take some time to resume partner requests for WEN on the Road services. 0 0 0 859536 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 12 0 0 9 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 19 19 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 X X X Sherry Turner 8168228083 4328 Madison Avenue Kansas City MO 64111 Sherry Turner President and CEO 40 0 X 125869 0 20181 Stacey Paine Chair 1 0 X X 0 0 0 Julie Pine Vice Chair 1 0 X X 0 0 0 Nicole Miller Secretary 1 0 X X 0 0 0 Jen Regas Treasurer 1 0 X X 0 0 0 Aviva Ajmera Director 1 0 X 0 0 0 Cathy Baier Director 1 0 X 0 0 0 Julie Bowen Director 1 0 X 0 0 0 Patrice M Brown Director 1 0 X 0 0 0 Stacey Callands Director 1 0 X 0 0 0 Kelly Eschweiler Director 1 0 X 0 0 0 Amber K Goering Director 1 0 X 0 0 0 Sharon Holmes Director 1 0 X 0 0 0 Shanee Kimber Director 1 0 X 0 0 0 Arlene Mockapetris Director 1 0 X 0 0 0 Jahna Riley Director 1 0 X 0 0 0 Rachel Smith Director 1 0 X 0 0 0 Sylvya J Stevenson Director 1 0 X 0 0 0 Toni Walsh Director 1 0 X 0 0 0 Megan Whitman Director 1 0 X 0 0 0 125869 0 20181 1 0 0 0 0 4613 0 381098 0 0 807087 25000 1192798 Job Fair 561300 34900 34900 0 0 0 0 0 0 34900 23747 0 0 23747 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 115127 0 123550 0 -8423 0 -8423 0 0 -8423 34240 381098 63258 -29018 0 -29018 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Prior Period Refund 900099 31 31 0 0 0 0 0 0 31 1214035 34931 0 -13694 0 0 17423 17423 0 0 0 0 152440 106708 30488 15244 0 0 0 0 435769 354414 0 81355 0 0 0 0 64866 52705 0 12161 41178 32405 1915 6858 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 25838 0 25838 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 6843 0 6843 0 50520 40600 0 9920 18457 14617 0 3840 36174 21875 11365 2934 18750 16875 1875 0 0 0 0 0 190378 152302 19038 19038 12767 5486 7281 0 0 0 0 0 13514 2840 2045 8629 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 5694 4556 569 569 10850 8680 1085 1085 Data Management 3050 3050 0 0 Donor Relationship 3487 0 161 3326 PY Receivable Adjustment 3766 0 3766 0 In-Kind Clothing 25000 25000 0 0 0 0 0 0 1136764 859536 112269 164959 330364 386989 13206 13216 132243 109166 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 36306 34114 43767 21899 8618 21868 680250 735788 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 226468 1200987 1527609 22362 3004 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 226468 22362 229472 X 1083625 1232105 95000 66032 1178625 1298137 1200987 1527609 X 77271 42242 0 0 0 -1 X 0 1 1 0 X 888584 1115620 1364769 1116606 1192798 5678377 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 888584 1115620 1364769 1116606 1192798 5678377 781429 4896948 18332 16248 21229 19625 23747 99181 0 0 0 0 0 0 428 0 0 0 31 459 5778017 283219 0.84751 0.83421 X Schedule A, Part II, Line 10 2018: Refund on previous period insurance policy; 2022: Prior period refund.
