PROGRAMS
Our agency's approach addresses broader objectives such as arresting tendencies toward financial dependency, chronic unemployment, and urban deterioration, resulting in a significant impact to individual lives and communities. By working concurrently on barriers to self-sufficiency, job training and placement, financial management and savings, and obtaining safe, decent affordable housing, participants served by WFBCDC are more likely to be achieve stability and maintain it successfully over the longterm, resulting in the realization of our mission.

Also, WFBCDC has partnered with other groups to support community needs which include childcare, senior housing, after-school programming, health & wellness initiatives as well as comprehensive services for a vulnerable youth population.
