ABOUT US “Warrior Women Against Poverty is a movement to elevate our most vulnerable children and families by surrounding them with resources and helping to create the support mechanism they need,” Carol Goss, President. Warrior Women Against Poverty helps transform the lives of women and their children by helping them to stabilize their families through intentional decision making. We engage women through mentorship, we connect them to resources, and we broaden their experiences through education workshops, seminars and outings. We are a group of women committed to making generational change by eradicating inter-generational poverty. Our outreach is diverse, covering issues such as soft-skill development, financial and legal literacy to learning to appreciate community service. Our work is to be the network and support for women who don’t have it and to inspire them to think and plan beyond their current reality.

TESTIMONIALS
What our mentees are saying about Warrior Women Against Poverty
The Warrior Women Against Poverty has helped transform my life for the better. I truly don’t know where I would be if I didn’t have the support of such a fantastic group of successful African American women. With the assistance of the Warrior Women Against Poverty I have been able to sustain custody of my children, return back to college, I’ve been gifted a vehicle by my mentor so I can continue to provide for my children and attend my college courses. I thank God I am a part of this wonderful group of women.
Being a part of this powerful group has developed my future for myself and my family. I have gained so many references and resources within the group. The Warrior Woman Against Poverty group also is one of my biggest supporters in my own business.
Note: Before the group I never had any support or anyone to be my resource for future reference.
I’ve been a part of Warrior Women since 2016. It’s been a tremendous opportunity to fellowship with amazing women from all kinds of educational and professional backgrounds. I have been inspired, coached, and given the tools to achieve self-sufficiency. Warrior Women has changed my life.
