SVED offers mothers opportunities to learn more about themselves and their Christian faith, about being better parents and about gaining the knowledge and life skills to help take their place in the larger world of work, education, and service. SVED arose to address a very real need – namely, the need for women to develop self-esteem, realize their God-given abilities and be empowered to learn and make good choices.
