A message from our Executive Director, Patrice Harrison
Young women today face more pressures and challenges than ever. Recent studies about "Minority Women" reveals concerning data:
More than 20% of young minority girls are Obese and have little access to information on healthy food choices or education on making healthy choices.
56% of girls as young as 13 have been sexually harassed and Black Young women have the highest cases of sexual abuse and assault those goes unreported.
African American women and Latinas account for 80% of reported female HIV/AIDS diagnoses, even though they represent only 25% of the U.S. female population
Young Minority Women want to be debt free or learn to manage money, but don't know where to start.
Young black women are 20% more likely to experience serious mental health problems than the general population, and don’t get the help needed due to fear.
Finally Young minority women say that the top three biggest barriers to taking on
leadership roles and changing their communities are being laughed at, speaking in front of others, and shyness.
Â
Each of these figures are troubling on their own, but is it even more concerning to know that 75% of young women who struggle with low self-esteem in this manner engage in harmful behaviors like drugs, drinking, bullying, disordered eating and have suicidal thoughts. Thankfully, we know what can make the difference.
