    Description: The mission of SPEAK is to Support, Prepare, and Empower Aspiring Kids. Our programs provide support and soft and hard skills to girls of immigrant and first- generation American backgrounds as they prepare to transition from high school to college. They learn how to choose appropriate colleges, courses of study, and potential college-to-career pathways. We want to help each girl make the best decision for her for the most direct high school to career pathway. Provide a network of professional women to connect with our young audience in high school and college for a more direct high school to career pathway. - Create and promote projects to build awareness and empower first generation high school girls - Create, empower, and inspire a network of passionate professional women to help guide female youth - Pool the community’s resources to make a greater impact and influence. - Facilitate dialogue between key players in a young girl’s life to help support and increase opportunity
Description:
SPEAK Mentorship provides programs to girls of immigrant and first-generation American backgrounds as they better understand the colleges and career pathways they are passionate about. Our programs help girls develop skills specific to different career areas, identify specific job titles, build networks of professionals, and narrow down college and major choices that are appropriate for each girl. Our program structure allows for the girls to feel supported and nurtured while they work towards developing their own voice as Americans. We have received immense support from Harvard and schools administrators in the NY, NJ, Philadelphia, and New Orleans areas. A quote from the Director of Multilingual Family Support Office of Philadelphia School Districts says "all of the [Philadelphia] schools would benefit from this program."
