After years of being a stay-at-home mom, I was unsure how to transition back into the workforce. EmpowerHer Tech Academy gave me the confidence and skills I needed to reenter the job market. From resume-building workshops to technical skill training, every aspect of the program was tailored to support me at every step. I can’t thank the team enough for their encouragement and for believing in me when I had doubts.
