The program initially rolled out at Madison High School in HISD has expanded to incorporate other school districts such as Spring ISD, Pearland ISD and several others in the Houston and surrounding counties.
Lets Protect Our Youth
SIS and This Woman’s Work (TWW) designed this program to encourage youth to dream beyond their often oppressive conditions of urban life. As an early intervention and prevention service, students from grades 9-12 will be selected for mentoring relationships.
If we help our youth,
we can change our future.
Nurturing relationships that encourage young women to “dare to dream”.
