The mission of the DeNeuville Learning Center is to assist women of all backgrounds and cultures in learning the skills needed to make positive choices for themselves and their families.

The vision of the DeNeuville Learning Center is that all women will have the dignity, self-worth, skills and opportunity to achieve their potential and help one another.

Organizational Values

  • Christian love, hope and peace are at the heart of all that is the DeNeuville Learning Center.
    We value education as a means to reach one’s full potential and as an important tool in making positive choices.
    We celebrate the diversity represented in the participants, Staff, and Volunteers.
    We believe that the programs provided by the DeNeuville Learning Center promote justice and peace in our community.
    We strive to meet all those who enter our doors with compassion and hope for reconciliation.
  • We value each person we serve and the unique set of needs, desires, dreams and goals that they bring to our table.

What's unique about DeNeuville Learning Center?

Most women who come to the center usually have an idea of what they want to do with their lives. For example, "I want to get my GED so that I can find a job, go to college..." Also, women who come for parenting classes or counseling say, "I want to get out of this situation" or "I want to get my children back."

Therefore, we view DeNeuville Learning Center as a special place for women to fulfill their life and educational goals.
