The Collective Thread

Follow Message Edit

The Collective Thread is expanding our current sewing school to provide needed skills training and employment opportunities to immigrant and refugee women in St. Louis by adding commercial sewing classes to our current curriculum. We will provide industrial sewing training for 60 women per year, who will have employment opportunities at identified businesses in need of sewers in St. Louis.Our small batch facility will employ 20 women to sew commercially for local clothing brands in year 2021, with 2-3 additional managerial positions. In 2022, we hope to double that number employed at The Collective Thread.
