My Experience as a Sisters in Strength Facilitator

Being a facilitator for this program was more rewarding than I ever thought it would be. I hoped to be a good role model and a supporting leader in the group, but I feel that I have also learned from the girls in the group. Their ability to open up and share their thoughts and stories within our safe environment has shown me how many different influences these young girls face and how a kind word or helping hand can mean so much to them. By being a part of this program, I feel I have helped these girls discover who they are by teaching them to stand up for their values and beliefs.
