Commission for Women Moved To A New Rockville Location

>

The Montgomery County Commission for Women Counseling and Career Center moved to the first floor of 401 Hungerford Drive on June 28th. This is the space formerly occupied by the Volunteer Center just a couple blocks from the Rockville Metro Station. My understanding is that the Volunteer Center is at a temporary location which is not open to the public until a move back to Rockville Pike in August.

The Commission for Women was established by law in 1972 to advocate for equal rights for women.

If you are not familiar with the services, the Counseling and Career Center offers a wide range of programs to meet the needs and interests of women in our community including:

• short-term goal oriented counseling for couples and inidividuals (both personal and career issues)
• workshops and seminars
• vocational and personality assessments
• Legal Call-Back Program

Legal questions are answered by phone on a call-back basis. Local attorneys provide free telephone consultations on specific questions within a two-week period. (240) 777-8300

Seminars on the calendar for this month are:

Mediation Seminar: Divorce With Dignity
Myers-Briggs Type Indicator
Divorce Legal Seminars with non-child and child-related issues
The Verbally Abusive Relationship
Divorce, Money and You
Healthy Relationships: Building Better and More Loving Partnerships
Effective Strategies to Reduce Stress

The Center has a highly qualified professional staff. Services are provided at low and affordable fees. Some services are offered in both English and Spanish. Counseling is provided by appointment only.

I’ve taken workshops and have always found the Center to be an invaluable resource.
