Her Future Matters Now
Ready and Relevant offers a unique, holistic mentorship program to young women of color.
We also see the limitations of life circumstances that can be barriers to the opportunities they deserve.
Values
Ready and Relevant focuses on four domains of personal development and leadership training:
Self Awareness
Social Integrity
Education and Career
Community Service
Helping young women empower themselves to make changes and to build on their areas of strength, as well as identify areas where they would like to make improvements. ​
Guiding a young woman’s ability to successfully form meaningful relationships in all situations — from job interviews, to collaborating with peers, to community engagements.
Assisting young women who apply for educational opportunities and offering career coaching so they gain knowledge, skills and experience for their future employment.
Engaging young women in civic responsibility and volunteer work to connect them with the greater community and the importance of making it a better place for all.
“I’ve been where you’ve been. I’ve been down the dark roads, and I’ve learned that a woman’s pain can be funneled into positive change.”
