Leadership Programs utilize ‘sister teams’ with a focus on projects that teach leadership skills. Through this effort, girls will build positive relationships, explore personal strengths and gain self-confidence.
Through the use of role models, and teaching women’s history, Nuturing Hearts works to educate young girls on the strength of the human spirit.
We utilize round table discussions and support classes to review and give guidance concerning numerous peer pressure issues, such as premarital sex, drug/alchohol abuse, teen pregnancy, dropping out of school, smoking, and education on recognizing physical and emotional abuse.

Negative emotions are feelings that we have when someone upsets us, harms us or takes us for granted by disrespecting or abusing who we are or are trying to become. These negative emotions can also emerge when we fall short of our own plans or the expectations of others. While negative emotions may result from situations and people that we have no control over, one of the worst negative emotional reactions is the emotion of fear, because we are reacting negatively to something that may never even occur or exist.

Dominique Kafando struggled to stay in school just 12 months ago. The Central Career and Technical School student had D's and F's on her report card, and had been assigned to Central's alternative-education school. "I was missing a lot of classes," said Kafando, 18. "I didn't care much about school." A teacher referred Kafando to Nurturing Hearts, a local nonprofit organization that provides leadership and life skills for teenage girls.
