Swagga & Lace Iniative
Your son/daughter is invited to take part in the Swagga & Lace Initiative sessions. with skills in the areas of leadership, community service, and civic engagement while allowing them to gain a sense of responsibility through healthy adolescent development.
Swagga & Lace Initiative is a component of Columbus Wellness Center Outreach and Prevention Projects started in 2010.
The Swagga & Lace Initiative has certified facilitators who have been trained in evidence based curriculums that will empower youth and teens with tools, skills, knowledge and the importance of delaying sexual activity, preventing teen pregnancy, HIV/STI transmission prevention as well as hands on life skills exercises and lectures.
Through candid discussions, energetic activities, guest speakers, field trips and cultural events; participants compared the challenges and benefits of education; young adulthood preparation, avoiding becoming a teen parent and gaining a career they will love.
Swagga and Lace Initiative teaches the benefits associated with self-regulation, seeking mental health support, success sequencing for poverty prevention, healthy relationships, self-care, goal setting, and resisting sexual coercion, dating violence, and other youth risk behaviors such as underage drinking or illicit/prescription drugs.
We empowered these teens to make the best decisions for themselves, exclusive of what society and peer pressure may make them feel.
