Teen Pregnancy Prevention, health, education and self empowerment through youth development programs.
The Floral Project is in direct response to the growing number of young girls that are either falling through the cracks at school because they lack the skills and strategy to maintain, are raising a child/children, have already dropped out because they have lost their since of hope, or socio-economically disadvantaged.
The name stems from the Proverb that states, “Flowers are God’s way of smiling at the earth,” so our initiative aims to nourish and flourish our garden of youth, by supporting and educating them about not giving up on themselves. Adolescents will have the opportunity to develop skills and knowledge that will encourage them to make the proper choices when faced with many societal ills that are involved with being a young adult.
The Floral Project is committed to flourishing and nourishing our garden of youth through expansion of and access to programs, the establishment of resources and advocacy for policies that assist young people in preventing unintended pregnancies, building self-empowerment, making health conscious decisions, while encouraging education through youth development programs that assist them in blossoming to their highest potential.
The Floral Project hosts a number of services and would love to meet with you and/or your organization for consulting to assist in meeting your needs. Some of our services include but are not limited to:
Workshops-Workshop participants are guided and encouraged to deeply explore the meaning of empowerment, identifying areas in their lives where they feel empowered and times or events in their lives when they have felt disempowered. They are then led through experiential exercises to help bring them into a state of personal empowerment.
