Project H2O

Project H2o

Project H2O (Here to Overcome) is an empowerment program for females ages 16-18. The program teaches participants how to overcome issues in their lives that have hindered their progress toward becoming successful adults. The target population includes: female juvenile offenders; youth who are not currently attending school; have recently been released from juvenile detention; or are at risk of entering/re-entering the juvenile justice system; as well as pregnant or parenting youth.

Project H2O will provide a safe and caring environment for young women to explore and discuss such issues as:

• Victimization
• Self-esteem/Self-efficacy
• Impact of Crime
• Teen Pregnancy
• Body Image
• Financial Management
• Decision Making
• Developing Healthy Personal Relationships
• Goal-setting
• Education & Career Exploration

Participants will also engage in youth-driven community service projects designed to allow the youth the opportunity to give back to the community in a healthy, meaningful way.
