MDCWT Sustainable Leadership Programming
Our programs are sustainable, researched-based, hands-on and minds-on, age-appropriate and meeting the needs of the MDCWT girls. With our trained staff, we develop locally-focused programs that ensure girls are exposed to new experiences. The work is done through a physical and emotional safe place; where there is a sisterhood of support, high expectations, and mutual respect. Our primary commitment to all girls in our programs is to listen to them and our goals are to:
- Maintain an environment that builds character, promote confidence, release charm and cultivate the beauty and intelligence for all girls.
- Play a role in developing the next generation of leaders and change makers. We do that by empowering the girls to value their self-worth, discover their strengths, passions and encouraging them to rise up to challenges as they find their “inner girl power”.
- Educate the girls to develop greater understanding and acceptance, changing current behaviors/patterns, and developing better ways of coping with their peers.
- Inspire the girls to create social change in their own communities by mirroring awareness and the power of life is within their heart, mind and tongue.
- Consider any subject a daughter wishes to learn about, apart from controversial topics we feel are better addressed by parents or religious leaders.
