Dress for Success is a group on a mission: to help women achieve economic independence, and they do this by focusing on three areas: 1) providing professional attire, 2) a support network, and 3) career development information.  I first heard about Dress for Success at a reception in New York City and thought it was a terrific idea. As soon as I get settled in my new location (in the next 3 months–hopefully), I am planning to sign up to help them fulfill their mission.

If you’re interested in learning more about the organization, or in volunteering, here’s how.
