Welcome to CWEE
Center for Work Education and Employment
Founded in 1982, CWEE fosters personal and professional transformation for low-income single parent families through confidence building, customized skills training, and career advancement. CWEE believes that regardless of personal situations and other barriers to employment, when an appropriate level of education and support is provided, individuals can and will succeed.
CWEE has a long history of expertise and knowledge in the field of workforce development. We are advocates on many levels – from our work on poverty and education issues to our core programs and services – we work tirelessly on behalf of those we serve. CWEE’s holistic model is comprised of three key phases – preparing for employment, finding employment, and keeping employment.
CWEE receives almost $90,000 in grant funding
Many thanks to our foundation and corporate grant funders in the second half of 2011 - Agrium, Denver Post Charities, Fox Family Foundation, Hyatt Hotels Foundation, KeyBank, Venoco, Wells Fargo Foundation, Women’s Foundation of Colorado, and Xcel Energy Foundation.

Here are some numbers: Ninety-five percent of the 629 participants in the Center for Work Education and Employment programs last year were women. Over half were under 25 years old. Almost nine out of 10 were single parents. Eighty-one participants attained a GED, usually within about 3 months. One hundred seventy-one were placed in full- or part-time jobs.
