About Us

The Colours program engages young women by empowering them with skills to become strong, productive global citizens. The program connects youth with positive mentors who offer support, suggestions, positive reinforcement, and constructive examples of successful women. Colours work with young women to create realistic attainable goals, both short and long-term. Then seeks to provide a venue that will allow these goals to come to fruition. During the bi-weekly meetings, participants are exposed to a host of positive learning experiences that include but are not limited to guest speakers, educational and cultural field trips, project-based and social-emotional learning opportunities. Additionally, the program offers teens a safe place to spend constructive time on weekends.
