Social Justice & Self-Care Youth Program :
The SisterCARE Alliance Youth Program will provide tools and strategies for holistic application of self care in everyday life for today's youth. This program would arm the youth with tools and strategies for balancing out their lives and provide connections to strategies for self care while learning how to advocate for themselves. Our program exposes the youth to wellness, legal and community development professionals as facilitators and encouragers. Click here to donate!
