OUR NEW PROGRAM…
At SOTR we believe in the importance of self-expression. We hav
e developed a new holistic program that enables women to establish a positive outlet for themselves and their children.
Our “Arts and Activism” program takes place Mondays and Wednesdays throughout the summer of 2010 from 2-5:30 pm. This program enables young women engage with their peers on a regular basis, as well create tangible pieces of art for themselves.
There is no required sign-up for this program, it is merely open to all women and children in the community who wish to participate. Women are encouraged to engage and create new ideas for the program and brainstorm ways to integrate self expression into their everyday lives.
The program concentrates on many aspects ranging from creative expression, education, and health & wellness
Program art activities include: Acting, dance, singing and songwriting, drawing, painting, poster making, jewelry making.
Program health and wellness activities: Exercising, reproductive health, nutrition, relaxation & meditation, early intervention, yoga and free HIV testing.
Program education activities: Resume creation, tutoring, college prep, school, work job placement, educational counseling, and college tours.
