RISE

empowerment workshops

RISE workshops are fun, empowering activities that give ethnic minority girls opportunities to play, learn and thrive together in a safe environment. Workshops are free to attend, and hosted by a mentor who can put the course information into cultural and social context. They are non-religious and tailored to be relevant and respectful to her culture. Topics from art to self defense, all aimed at building girls confidence, critical thinking, and leadership skills.

  • Women’s Health and Understanding of Disease Transmission
