RUTH

"THANK YOU FOR SUCH A GREAT 10 WEEKS! I was in a very dark place when I was invited to join the Women’s Health Advocacy Program (WHAP). After going through this 10-week class, I was able to put certain issues in perspective. Learning a decision making process as well as how to set goals helped me resolve the issues that were weighing me down."

SYDNAE, 7TH GRADE

“I LEARNED THAT DOING THE BEST THING FOR ME IS THE BEST CHOICE. I would like to thank you for coming to help us girls. I also like that we talked about peer pressure. This helps because a lot of girls don’t know how to say “no” or stop what’s happening. Saying no when I need or want to will help me in my lifetime.”
