Girl Magic Incorporated

Our last facilitator of our 8-week spring cohort was Gilda Mack. We could've had Ms. Gilda come and share her tenured journey in the world of IT being one of a few black female leaders navigatung the space, but we chose to take a different path. Understanding just how challenging that journey can be, she instead poured into our girls by sharing something just as powerful: how Forming Positive Habits now can shape who they become later.
By learning these lessons early i.e. time management, presentation in dress, behavior, communication, etc., our girls are gaining tools to grow into their best selves; avoiding many of the challenges adults face today because they simply didn't have the guidance sooner. Thank you Ms. Gilda for sewing seeds!!

In week 6, Katia Hernandez and Melanie Ruiz from Anuvia Prevention and Recovery Center facilitated their 4th and final session of the spring on Effective Communication. This session along with Goal Setting, Decision-Making, and Managing Emotions, gave the girls a taste of the core skill development they will need to navigate the world they will enter after high school.
