Graduation!!!
Class! We filled out cards/books for the girls to have at graduation.
I presented my library PowerPoint for the youth participants during our combined class time on 11/30/23. After my presentation, we made cards for the youth participants.
I presented my PowerPoint presentation titled "A resilient reunion at the library, it was very well-received, I just wish more girls had been in attendance.
This marked one whole month since our meetings at the library began! At this point the youth participants really started to open up and we continued to make progress. It was at this point where I could tell some youth participants were sharing more openly and carries themselves with more confidence.
RL Stein, the author from goosebumps, was presenting at the library during our meeting time so our usual space was very hectic during our regular meeting time. This did not inhibit our conversation or meeting time, and we proceeded as normal upon going upstairs.
This was the third week of meeting at the library. We met in the deli at first and ate, then headed up to the Ann Henry board room for our student-led presentation.
This was the first official meeting at the library. We had more youth participants than the first night. We started in the deli where we ate pizza and did ice breaker activities. We then moved upstairs and our first student presentation was shared with the girls. Our youth participants began to open up and we engaged in a meaningful conversation about not being influenced based on what others say to us.
This was our first meeting at the library! We introduced ourselves and the program in the deli then moved up to the art and movement room. Dr. Mensah ran through program expectations and shared that "What is said here, stays here. What is learned here, leaves here." which set the tone for this program being a safe place for all involved. Although some girls at the meeting were anxious and hesitant, there was excitement in anticipation of all of the growth that would come from this program.
