My project will be to assess and counteract the problem of negative perceptions of and among young African American females and our role in society.
My project for this semester includes mentoring young girls and helping them to become sexually, physically, emotionally, educationally, and mentally aware of themselves, their community, society, and options that will help them to make the best choices for them. This will aid them in leading a more positive and healthy lifestyle. I will accomplish this b participating in Pillow Talk a program offered by the Institute of Women and Ethnic Studies (IWES) here in New Orleans, mentoring young girls between the ages of 13-18.
