The Vision
Our Four Primary Program Pillars
Our Four Primary Program Pillars
The Circle of SistAhood's vision stemmed from the lack of many unavailable resources for teen girl's mentorship. Mental health is growing and many teens are left in the dark on how to navigate through life. This program is design to not only help teens overcome life stressors, but to help their families as well.

SHE READY GOALS
The Circle of SistAhood is looking to grow within the Southern Sector of the DFW, primarily in the Ellis County area. With your generous thoughts and donations, you will assist the organization with the current challenges to include lack of funding for projects, future teen events such as conferences, summer programming, and college tours.The funding will also assist with funding for building needs to hold bimonthly meetings, supplies, community outreach projects and assistance with funding our parenting program to increase family stability. Our focus is to mitigate the personal and development challenges teen girls face while supporting their major needs and increasing families’ strengths. With our organization recently starting, our current request to assist with the needs of supplies, food, financial education, and projects for health and wellness.
We appreciate your time, efforts and generosity!!
