Making Changes Association is a dynamic non-profit organization that empowers women in transition by helping them build confidence and skills so they can participate as fully as possible in their communities.
We fulfill our mission by providing the following programs:
• Women in Technology Program: In partnership with a leading IT consulting firm, offers a six-month integrated skills training program to help women enter the technology sector. The program combines employment skills, full-stack web development training, and hands-on work experience to produce employment outcomes for immigrant and indigenous women and those who identify as women in Calgary.
• Dress for Success Calgary: Offers one-on-one consultations on professional attire to women facing financial barriers who want to join the workforce, return to school, or get involved with volunteer opportunities. Participants are offered gently used clothing and accessories at no cost to help them look and feel their best.
• Employment and Life Skills Program: Offers a series of pre-employment workshops to immigrant women. Through self-discovery, this program encourages critical thinking in a supportive environment so women who are new to this country can not only recognize the skills they already possess, but how to confidently use those skills to successfully advance their careers in Canada.
• My Best Friend’s Closet: Provides girls aged 12 to 18 from low-income homes with appointments to select a year’s worth of fashionable and functional clothing to meet their back-to-school and recreational needs at no cost. Each participant is paired with a peer volunteer stylist who assists them in choosing their clothes and accessories in a fun, retail-style space.
