Guiding the Next Generation: School-Based Mentorship for Pre-Teens
Guiding the Next Generation: School-Based Mentorship for Pre-Teens
Guiding the Next Generation: School-Based Mentorship for Pre-Teens
Every Thursday, Teens Have Visions 2 mentors pre-teen girls at a local Colquitt County elementary school as part of our 8-week program focused on personal growth and development.
Through this mentorship, students are learning to set SMART goals, build self-confidence, and develop strong character. This week, we introduced journaling as a powerful tool to help our mentees manage stress, reflect on their experiences, and stay focused on their goals. Journaling provides a creative and safe space for them to express their thoughts, emotions, and progress as they continue their journey toward self-discovery and empowerment.

Last year, some of our teens girls at Teens Have Visions 2 had the opportunity to attend the Proclamation for Willie Bell Irvin-Partridge, one of 855 Battalion forming the 6888th Central Postal Directory during World War II. She was right from Moultrie, GA. Our teen girls had opportunity to see 6888 by Tyler Perry in December 2024.
We are overly excited to have been able to celebrate her 100th birthday June 16, 2023 with her daughter Brenda Patridge-Brown, but even more excited to see the book that will be release in honor of her mother. Our girls are learning so much about the history of our very community.
