Step-In Afterschool Girls Empowerment Program
The weekly sessions of Step-In provide consistent afterschool programming that have a curriculum focus on self-esteem and confidence building, self-efficacy, social-emotional learning, and health and wellness.
A Strengths-Based Program
Our Pillars
We help girls become the fullest version of themselves through activities, curriculum and engagement focused on these four pillars:
Emotional Well-being
Girls gain understanding in how to regulate and express their emotions to build emotional intelligence and social-emotional skills.
Healthy Relationships
Girls develop essential skills for understanding and fostering healthy relationships with themselves, peers and adults around them.
Physical Well-being
Girls foster independence by gaining a sense of control of their bodies and their capabilities through physical activities.
Community Experiences
Girls expand their horizons, sense of belonging and aspirations through connections to their community and the world around them through experiences.
Our Six-Step Method
These six-steps are vitally important to the success and integrity of Charleston Hope’s Step-In Program Model and are followed daily in our programs.
