Program is a self-development and mentoring program, students 12-17 years of age. Our program addresses self-esteem, identity crisis, emotional challenges, and bullying and unhealthy relationships. We create a safe atmosphere for students to be open and vulnerable. By increasing their cultural awareness and developing a positive self-image, outside of their environment and influences, we are able to raise their success rate and quality of life. Our program provides the essential tools that students need to become productive citizens; in adjacent, we work to equip them to make better decisions.

The program features interactive dialogue on topics that our students face in today’s society. We utilize journaling as a therapeutic tool, to help students release any hurt, pain, and issues that may be internalized. The first sessions are dedicated to discovering their identity and the image of who they want to become, while following sessions are geared to development and navigation implements to walk it out.

This program will impress upon the students to change their perspective on life, as well as, change behavior patterns. Students need motivation and guidance to reach their full potential. They need to be provided a space, and opportunity, to develop necessary coping skills and strategies, which help them become successful adults. We guide them in understanding their value beyond their circumstances.

The goal of our program is to prepare students to become advocates for self-preservation, to recognize their full potential, and to empower them in making healthy choices in and out of the classroom.
