Space of Her Own
Space of Her Own, Inc. provides preteen girls with one-on-one volunteer adult mentors to foster social, emotional, academic and creative enrichment. Youth engage through visual arts, carpentry and life skills classes and work with their mentors to transform their bedrooms and build bright futures. Our programs prevent juvenile delinquency and promote success in school.
We envision a strong sisterhood…
To reach girls in need and prevent juvenile criminal involvement
To engage all participating youth in art and carpentry projects as outlets for self-expression and creativity
To empower youth to see the arts as an endeavor at which all can succeed
To increase participating girls’ self-esteem, help them recognize their strengths and develop their sense of self
To cultivate life skills, including:
- Positive communication
- Goal-setting
- Decision-making
- Leadership
- Anger management
- Conflict resolution
- Healthy eating
- Etiquette
- Community service
To provide every participant with a personalized Space of Her Own that encourages creativity, conveys a sense of value and serves as a lasting reminder of her circle of support and care
To have a lasting impact by fostering one-on-one mentor and peer group relationships beyond the one-year program.
