Meet the Team  

Coaches, who become mentors to the girls, come from the community and  CSU departments to include: Human Development and Family Studies (HDFS), Communications, English Education, Health and Exercise Science and Sociology/ Social Work.

Mentoring coaches encourage girls to build self-esteem through various activities designed toward girls thriving as a leader. Inspiring a girl to become a leader will put her on the path toward greater contribution to society.
