This luncheon brings together 2 of cityCURRENT’s Strategic Focuses:

- Strategic Corporate Philanthropy
- Community Collaboration – The diverse group of women will serve as a brain trust and aid in information sharing which will, in turn, help cityCURRENT serve Middle TN.

For convenience, the lunches are set up as Dutch treat.

Our Featured Nonprofit for this luncheon:

Our goal is to help at- risk girls recognize vulnerabilities in their history, educate them on potential negative consequences of these issues, and give them opportunities to connect with resources.

We work collaboratively with juvenile probation/court, detention, foster care agencies, at-risk youth programs and the department of children’s services.

52% of the girls we see ask for opportunities to connect with adult mentors to help provide stability and encouragement. Short term data in collaboration with Davidson county juvenile court probation has shown that girls who take the epic girl identity training are less likely to re-enter the court system.
