What Is The Mother's Guide to Six-Figure Careers?

The Mother's Guide to Six-Figure Careers from Diversion Center is a career exploration resource that workforce development boards, WIOA service providers, TANF employment and training programs, reentry organizations, and family support agencies license to help the women they serve discover high-paying career pathways. The guide profiles 50 high-demand careers with $100,000+ earning potential, with step-by-step guidance covering education requirements from high school diploma to bachelor's degree, certifications and licensing, job duties, work settings, and salary potential — written for mothers, single mothers, caregivers, and women re-entering the workforce.

Built for Workforce Development Decision Makers

If you manage a WIOA Adult, Dislocated Worker, or Youth program, direct TANF or SNAP E&T employment services, run a reentry or second-chance program, or coordinate family support services like Healthy Start, this guide gives your case managers and career coaches a ready-to-use career exploration tool that participants actually keep, read, and act on. It supports career pathway planning, Individual Employment Plan (IEP) development, and the credential-and-employment outcomes your program reports on — turning "get a job" conversations into "build a career" plans.

Flexible Delivery: Cohorts, Workshops, or One-on-One

• Group and cohort format: Use the guide as the backbone of career exploration workshops, job readiness classes, and orientation cohorts.
• One-on-one format: Career coaches and case managers work through targeted career profiles during individual appointments, matching pathways to each participant's interests, family responsibilities, and long-term goals.
• Take-home resource: Unlike a handout that ends up in the trash, this is a published guide participants keep — extending your program's impact past the appointment.
