DENVER — The Women's Bean Project, which helps women experiencing chronic unemployment find their footing to secure future jobs, is celebrating one year in its new building in Denver’s Athmar Park. It's a location that's giving the nonprofit a chance to grow.
"We hire women experiencing chronic unemployment and we work with them over six to nine months to help them move into mainstream employment,” said Women’s Bean Project CEO Tamra Ryan.“Many of the women we hire have histories of addiction, many have histories of incarceration. Often, they have challenges with housing,” said Ryan.
"At the end of the day, if I wasn't here taking care of myself, I’d probably be at home just being a mother, being a wife, not being me who I am,” said Morrison.
