Middle and early High School is
a critical time in the development
of healthy teenage girls. Pres-
sures about body image, peers,
and societal expectations can
damage girls' self - esteem.
Sign -ups are now being taken
for girls entering 7th to 10th
grades this Fall, for the SECC

Active workshops, service learn-
ing projects and interaction with
women role models present girls
with opportunities that challenge,
encourage risk taking and build
self esteem.

Some of the Southeast Yakima Community Center's Girls Leadership Camp Participants
are in the audience this evening to observe their City government at work. They do not
need to be introduced or called up front, but if you could greet them and acknowledge
their presence we would appreciate it very much. They range in age from 11 to 14.
The girls are completing the Camp, and have had many different "first time" experiences
this summer. They have had several enriching field trips such as a visit to Heritage
University and visits to private businesses like the Coca Cola Company. They have also
been exposed to several community leaders who have taught them leadership and
personal behavior skills that will serve to enhance their potential for life success. They
have also engaged in academic exercises and have been encouraged to be excellent
students.
Leaders of the group are Rosie Lee SECC Staff and Ms. Janeya Anderson and Ms.
Valencia Johnson, Davis High School Students and Ms. Taylor Gutheridge of
Eisenhower High School. Janeya, Valencia and Taylor were provided summer jobs
through the annual 100 Jobs for 100 Kids Campaign of which you are familiar.
Thank you .... Est uey, SECC
