Programs

1. You Glow Girl Summer Program addressed the inequality that poverty creates for our youth, including significant inequity in opportunity, and experiences by providing access to high quality summer programming which offered a variety of unique opportunities and experiences for economically disadvantaged school-aged girls of Wayne County. The program focused on improving or establishing self esteem and confidence, and establishing connections between staff and youth and among the youth. We understand that connections save lives, keep people off drugs and out of jails. We understand that connections are a large part of the path to resiliency and that resiliency sets the most successful people apart from the rest. This program worked to create resiliency and a sense of belonging for every student. Every person needs to have people in their life who love and accept them.
