Last year, Jenny lost her job. A single mother strugging to find her next opportunity, unemployment was starting to take a toll on her financially, as well as emotionally. Her self-esteem was dwindling. She wanted to provide her children a good life. But how? That’s when Jenny heard about Flanner House’s Center for Working Families (CWF).
