E3 Menstrual Health Equity

Menstrual health is a human right, not a privilege. Menstrual equity means more than access to hygiene products, but also to educate about the social determinants of reproductive health.

The program will provide valuable leadership experience for middle and high school students to address health inequities in reproductive health and other services as a global issue. (stipends included)

Restorative Practice Circles

Restorative Circles helps communities, organizations, families, and government develop their own processes for supporting those in conflict.

With the increase of violence in our community, Confident Girl Mentoring stepped forward with increased trauma-informed programming to restore relationships and reintegrate the community.

Jump 4 Confidence Sports

Our esteemed competitive jump rope project provides co-ed health-promoting activities. The distinctive feature of the program will bring a new level of awareness to the sport of jump rope and re-engage members by providing access to total mind-body wellness through fitness and sports leadership training.

Literacy Development

Our Confident Minds "Kids Take 5" project encourages the youth we serve to read for at least five minutes per day. We hope these five minutes will soon become ten, twenty, and so on. It will improve the reading abilities of the youth we serve while fostering a love for reading.

The Culture Empowerment Project

Designed to empower girls to appreciate themselves for their unique characteristics, it naturally supports respect for cultural differences.
