About
Woman 2 Woman
Woman 2 Woman is a
faith-based, non-profit mentoring, education and
referral organization serving Missouri women in Camden,
Morgan and Miller counties. It was founded to provide a
way for women to learn to realize their hopes, dreams
and possibilities. Working with many other
organizations, we identify women who truly want to help
create better lives for themselves and their families.
We assign mentors who help show women the way to
success.
The
Land of Possible
God has created
each person with a unique set of special gifts and
talents. Though life circumstances may not have been
ideal, once you discover that you have choices in
everything you do from this day forward, you will
discover your God given power to create the life you
dream about. At Woman 2 Woman, we call this life the
Land of Possible.

What
Woman 2 Woman Does Not Do...
The
Key is to Help Yourself
At Woman 2
Woman, we love sunflowers. They symbolize for us that
small seeds can quickly grow into big, beautiful, useful
flowers. We help you plant the seed so it grows strong
and tall. You must really want to shine for yourself,
not because someone else wants you to do it, or because
there is some reward (such as continued social service
benefits) in it.
Our 3
Strikes, You're Out, Policy
One of the most
important things we help you learn is that all positive,
supportive and successful relationships are built on
trust. When you do what you say you're going to do, you
demonstrate that you value yourself and those interested
in helping you shine.
On the other
hand, when you say you will do something and don't, you
demonstrate that helping yourself isn't important enough
to you to make sure you keep your word.
We expect you to
keep your word. If you don't, we must assume you don't
have the necessary commitment to help yourself. You
will be asked to leave the program the third time you
don't do what you tell us you will do.
