About Dress for Success

Dress for Success seeks to promote the economic independence of disadvantaged women by providing professional attire, a network of support and career development tools to ensure women thrive in work and in life.

Dress for Success provides wardrobe assistance and career advice to guide disadvantaged women onto a successful career path in the workforce. Trained volunteers are available at area boutiques across the country to provide professional attire, personal shopping services, resume and interview assistance. And once a woman has successfully become a part of the workforce, the Professional Women’s Group, Dress for Success’ employee retention program, continues to provide assistance for ongoing career advice.
