Powerful Voices creates brave spaces with girls and gender expansive youth of color to take charge of their own power as leaders, igniting their abilities to confidently express themselves, build community, and act against injustices affecting their lives.

Grounded in core tenets of anti-adultism, a strengths-based framework, and trauma-informed practices, gender-specific, social justice programs for 11-19 year old girls of color so that they can be equipped with communal knowledge and platforms to speak up. Programming includes:

  • employment programs
  • cultural enrichment programs
  • student advocacy
