Fresh Start Womenβs Foundation, a nonprofit organization, is very near and dear to all of us at Gray DI. Its story is one of success in helping transform womenβs lives by providing access and resources to help women achieve self-sufficiency and use their strength to thrive. To realize this, Fresh Start began by building a roadmap and establishing successful partnerships with higher education institutions in the local community and employers seeking qualified workforce team members.Β This ground-breaking approach is creating a lasting impact on women, families, and communities.Β
