GIRLS SUPPORT GROUP
We offer monthly support group mentoring designed to support the under-served needs of girls (8-12 years old), teens (13-15 years old) and young women (16-24 years old) with a parent or family member that has been in conflict with the law. Specifically, our program is aimed to build self-esteem, provide peer support, receive help with homework, set goals, and foster the development of positive female leaders in our community.
