Self Esteem Sessions

• Program Details

These sessions will focus on helping each youth
to determine who they really are by looking at
negative stereotypes and images painted by others
that have dictated who they are and will become.
After looking at the negative messages they have
received, we will enhance their self-esteem and
identity by positive affirmations and begin
sessions that will bring out the feminity of the
young ladies and the warrior spirit of the young
men. We will then begin to explore topics such
as identity, purpose, career goals and destiny.
We will have special sessions with Mary Kay (for
the ladies) and the young men will have a mock
fashion show displaying how they feel and how
they are portrayed when wearing certain types of
clothing.
