Students and alumnae gather for an important tradition at the Sophia Center - Potluck lunches.

What Our Students Say

I dropped out in the 12th grade. I’ve tried to get my G.E.D. but I did not learn from that because I didn’t have the support. Now, since I started at Sophia, my mind is clear. I can think better. If I need help in a certain subject, they are right there for me.
- Deborah D.

It was so wonderful to hear that I could use my computer at home to study, and meet with the tutors on Saturday mornings to help me with any questions that I may have. Mrs. Ayala and the staff are a great group of people to have on my side, helping me to make my dream come true. I truly believe that the Sophia Women’s Learning Center is God’s blessing to the women that attend the program.
- Susan C.
