Mission
Vision
Our mission is to ignite the passion and leadership potential in young Latinas in high school by shattering the generational cycles that impact their lives. We are dedicated to equipping these future leaders with essential life skills, professional development, and civic engagement opportunities, empowering them to break barriers and create the lives of their dreams.
To create a future where every young Latina confidently leads, breaks barriers, and transforms their communities, building a legacy of empowerment and success for generations to come.
Our Program
Our Program is an empowering eight-month journey from September to April, designed to inspire young Latinas through three core pillars:
-
Charlas de Amor
-
Poderosas on the Rise
-
Spreading the Love
Once a mentee graduates, she will unlock exclusive opportunities tailored just for her, including exciting networking events, job shadowing, and educational field trips. She will also be paired with a dedicated mentor who will support her throughout her high school journey helping every step of the way!
Our Pillars
Charlas De Amor
Our comprehensive life skills program equips young Latinas with the essential skills needed to navigate daily life. From identifying healthy relationships, learning the importance of mental health, building self-confidence and financial literacy to effective communication and decision-making, we ensure our young Latinas are well-equipped to face life's challenges with unwavering confidence.
Poderosas on the Rise
In our professional development program, we prepare young Latinas for the professional world. This preparation includes participating in leadership and career opportunities, learning resume writing and interview techniques, and receiving career guidance. We empower our young leaders to pursue their dreams and achieve their full potential. Additionally, we foster empowering and authentic dialogues with inspirational Latina Trailblazers who unveil the path to professional growth and excellence.
Spreading the Love
We firmly believe that collaboration strengthens our community. Our civic engagement project, 'Spreading Love,' empowers each cohort to create positive change within their community by developing projects that foster social responsibility and improve the world around them.
