Our Mission

The JLC is an organization of women committed to promoting voluntarism, developing the potential of women and improving the community through the effective action and leadership of trained volunteers. Its purpose is exclusively educational and charitable.

The women of our community contribute a great deal to the success of our neighborhoods and cities. By harnessing the synergy amongst all women and showing them just how important they really are to the health of our community, The JLC hopes to proliferate a sense of belonging and leadership in women everywhere we offer support.

100 Days, 100 Ways

Each day for 100 days we will share one way the JLC and its members have made an impact on the community through volunteer work, JLC trained leaders, and partnerships with other organizations in our community.

In 1985, the JLC coordinated a pediatric orientation workshop called Meducate that was used to prepare healthy children for possibly frightening hospital experiences. The materials were a multi-sensory approach that enabled children to learn about hospitals in a positive way.  The JLC worked with Euclid General Hospital on this program.
