OUR SISTER'S STORY: BIG SISTER

Our Sisters’ Story: Big Sisters is a youth program for young Southeast Asian women ages 17-20 years old in Milwaukee. The program aims to address healing by bringing light to the injustices that women, girls, and queer fem folks face through story sharing, building sisterhood, and self love. Additionally this program strives to create a new world that is free from violence against women, girls, and queer fem folks through empowerment, necessary life skills, and leadership.

KID'S CORNER

Kid’s Corner is for children under the age of 12. Our sessions are provided for children with the opportunities to build healthy relationships with other individuals in a safe, culturally sensitive environment that encourage personal and social growth, arts and crafts, and homework help during the school year.
