About Community Women Against Hardship: CWAH was co-founded by Gloria L. Taylor and the late Betty J. Lee. At the time both women were employed by the Chancellor of the University of Missouri-St. Louis, Dr. Marguerite Ross Barnett. After reading a report about poverty in the City of St. Louis, Taylor joined with Lee, a respected journalist, to establish a support center for families struggling with poverty. Since 1988, CWAH has provided services to over 6,000 families, mainly women and children. The CWAH Family Support Center houses a library, a computer lab, a music laboratory, a clothing boutique, a food pantry, and a warehouse of donated furniture, appliances and various household items. All educational and developmental classes and workshops are held at the Center. CWAH is motivated to continue our work thanks to the impact of its educational and developmental programs for both youth and their parents.
