Caroline Center educates under and unemployed women in Baltimore for careers with potential advancement.  Founded 27 years ago, Caroline Center was founded on the belief that educating women can transform communities and have generational impact.  It offers tuition-free education to women of 18-50, including a fifteen-week training program for nursing assistants and pharmacy techs and a recently completed pilot construction apprenticeship program.  Beyond their training, women are assisted with scholarships applications, resume writing and other services.  Circle funds will be used to underwrite the costs of the Pharmacy Technicians and Certified Nursing Assistants programs.
