The Fort Norfolk Chapter of Federally Employed Women welcomed Debra Dandridge as a guest speaker for our May 2010 chapter meeting. Dandridge serves as Director/CEO of Dress for Success Hampton Roads, the local affiliate of an international nonprofit organization that helps disadvantaged women reach economic independence. Active in the Hampton Roads area for the past four years, the organization has cooperative agreements with area organizations such as Department of Human Services, Second Chances Program and Department of Housing and Urban Development to "suit" residents in need.
In addition to providing suits, the organization provides training and workshops that improve resume and cover letter writing, telephone ettiquette and interviewing skills.
