 We believe that each individual woman has the ability to discover her inner
strength and build upon it. OSAAT will support and inspire these women to
overcome obstacles, reach their fullest potential, and thus enrich their lives
and the world in which they live and work. This organization will assist women
by offering financial assistance to help them further their educations and/or
vocational skills. OSAAT will be targeting women in the adult entertainment
industry. All women who wish to enhance their lives, not just those from the
entertainment industry, are eligible for assistance from this organization.
OSAAT promotes a positive environment with women in transition from challenging
life and financial situations to economic self-reliance. This charitable
organization of women will be committed to improving the community through
effective action, education and leadership.
Initially our time will be devoted to talking to women about other career
options and putting them in touch with community colleges and vocational schools
which can start them on the road to leaving their current occupation. Women
interested in qualifying for financial assistance, must formally enroll in
G.E.D., college or vocational classes. This financial assistance may include
paying for their courses or assisting them with day-to-day expenses such as
daycare, rent, insurance, transportation, etc. The amount and type of financial
assistance OSAAT can provide will be dependant upon the success of our
fund-raising efforts.
This organization will also make an effort to educate these women about
issues important to their future well-being. This will include providing
interested women with information on careers, family planning and birth control,
budgeting and running a household. These women will also be educated in drug and
alcohol use and abuse, domestic violence and where to obtain help.
The activities of OSAAT will clearly benefit the public interest. Providing
access to financial resources, and helping women find an alternative to
working in jobs which have no financial security, is clearly beneficial to the
public interest. By improving their educations or vocational skills, we want to
allow women the option to transition out of a career that does not necessarily
have a long term future. This benefits not only the women who receive this
support, but the community at large. Instead of having women who may be draining
the local government’s resources and in professions which requires no formal
training or skills, OSAAT will help create productive members of the community
with skills employers can use.
The activities of OSAAT also serve educational purposes. The information
provided to the women who utilize the organization’s services will help to
educate them and allow them to make better decisions as they transition into a new
life.
