“Heroes” is a program that targets dissociated and at-risk youth and diverts them from criminal behaviors. Heroes nutures and develops positive life-skills and creates a new set of values in kids that have been marginalized throughout their lives.
Our Girls Resiliency and Empowerment program instills self-esteem and builds confidence and nurtures leadership and life-skills in young ladies that need positive modeling.
