The Problem

Woman-2-woman and Man-2-man are Youth Enrichemnt programs targeted at youth ages 10-17 years old. The programs gives the youth insight to ways to be successful inlife. The topics discussed are: peer pressure, personal hygenie, financial mamnagement, computer literacy, self esteem, teen violence,etc.

Why It's Important

This project is important because there is a rise in the number of deaths related to teen violence and there is not enough positive things for youth to do in their community. This project will provide a positive putlet ofr youth and help them gain skills needed to overcome peer pressure and resolve conflicts in a positive manner.

The Plan Of Action

Initially the pganization looked at the issues the youht face in the comunity and discussed ways to fulfil the need in the community. To implement this project the organization contacted community resources to come do presentation on target topics. Advertising was done in many areas in the community including group homes and residential facilities. We found a venue and began accepting registration forms.
