Program Overview
Powerful Voices is all about creating space. We are a fully femme, womxn, non-binary staff of color that aims to build a place where young girls and gender expansive youth of color can feel brave enough to share their truths with us and then the world. Since 1995, we have created gender-specific, social justice programs for 11-19 year olds so that they can be equipped with communal knowledge and platforms to speak up. We also resource share and partner with organizations, individuals, and businesses alike to re-frame what it looks like to support and be led by young people.
Our Case Management program:
Our Case Management program:
- helps girls determine which services they need, when, and in what order, how to access them and provides adult guidance and support.
- assists with developing and practicing skills such as communication, goal setting, time management, accountability, and self advocacy
- connects girls to the services they need most, such as job readiness programs and employment opportunities, tutoring, credit retrieval, service learning projects, recreation, Aggression Replacement Training ( ART), mentoring, and resources for them to get their basic needs met
Our process to help girls define and determine success for themselves:
- Intake and assessment
- Relationship building
- Designing a service plan
- Goal setting
- Community advocacy and linking to services and resources
- Implementing and monitoring the service plan
- Quarterly evaluation of the effectiveness of case management
