words from our young women
“As a young woman of colour, meeting others with a similar story to mine has given me the strength to open up and overcome my past trauma. Also knowing that I am not alone also gave me the courage to help others who may need the peer support that I wish I had while growing up.”
“Being surrounded by ambitious women allowed me to grow and learn as an individual and for once I’m learning things that I would use in everyday life. This is the type of education you would wish for in school to help you be ready for the outside world and workforce. ”
“My heart was very full with many things before I joined this program. But Ethni helped me to improve my confidence and to know how good it is to share your feelings with others. I am so happy to meet new friends and strong women”
