Proud to be an SVS SMART Girl :)
SMART Girl’s Creative Expression Night
SMART Girls is designed to promote increased safety, stability and self-esteem among our female Group Home residents, empowering them to lead lives free of violence and abuse and to work toward economic self sufficiency. The implementation of the SMART Girls program—comprising a comprehensive system of components with goals that are Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic and Time Bound—provide the young women who enter SVS Group Homes with a positive intervention that will address the emotional and personal traumas they experienced prior to their placement in the foster care system.
Here are some pictures from their pumpkin carving session!
