Our program is divided into three six-week phases –Discovery, Bravery and Service. Each phase is designed to develop, test and empower, however, our program is flexible and not confined to the framework. There are times when we have to make the necessary adjustments in order to meet the needs and challenges of our girls. We are "out of the box thinkers", and if we decide something is not working, we change it.
