Women’s Program

The Women’s Program provides a safe space for women to gather together and partake in a variety of activities aimed at fostering socialization and empowerment.  They receive information on how to access information and services and learn about new ways of increasing self-confidence, building physical and mental strength, and reducing social isolation.

The program revolves around the “Cook & Talk” model, which allows women to share cultural recipes and life experiences while socializing and forming friendships and supports.

OCDC is a social outreach with the mission to rebuild communities from the inside out with a comprehensive program designed to improve and enrich the lives of youth and families. It is our conviction that true change must come from the inside out. Therefore, in order to impact lives, we must address the moral and spiritual foundations upon which those lives are built, while simultaneously meeting felt needs.

OCDC will provide a hand –up, not hand-out. OCDC provides holistic long-term, not short term solutions by meeting needs in a way that changes how people think, which ultimately determines how they live.
