OUR PURPOSE

Is to proactively plant the seeds of self-confidence and self-care for young kids at an early age - by supporting them with social and emotional wellness, and increasing Emotional Intelligence (EQ), specifically in areas that girls are typically challenged.

WHAT IS IT?

This is an 8-week after-school program supporting kids with uplifting themselves and others through self, social, and emotional wellness. Utilizing the EQ it UP!™ Curriculum, the intention is to support them with increasing their emotional intelligence through Education, Practice, Reinforcement, and Engagement, within themselves and among their peers...truly creating a Great Uplifters Team™.
