Supporting Black and Latine Girls & Femmes

June 17, 2025 @ 9:00 am - June 18, 2025 @ 3:00 pm

This immersive, two-day workshop equips mentors and mentoring program practitioners to address many of the challenges Black and Latina girls and young women face today and provide them with the tools to help girls grow their community, build their confidence, and live the life they want.

 

The workshop explores questions like:

Why focus on this population of young people?

What challenges do Black and Latina girls/femmes face?

How do we take special care in establishing mentoring relationships with Black and Latina girls?

How do shared/disparate cultural experiences impact our mentoring relationships?

 

June 17th 9am-3pm & June 18th 9am-3pm

 

This training is for anyone who is in mentoring relationships with self-identified Black and Latina girls/femmes or the staff of organizations who support these mentoring relationships. Participants that attend both workshop days will receive a training certificate from MMP.
