Sacred Sistahs, Inc. will hold its annual

in August at the Claremont Colleges. We will
meet on Saturday, August 8, 2009 from
9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., and on Sunday,

Our program will target young African American women ages 11 through 18 and will consist of lessons focused on perceptions of
beauty, relationships with young men including sexual health, HIV prevention, the benefits of abstinence, culturally relevant
history, healthy eating habits and exercise including yoga, the importance of education and college preparation, and financial
literacy. Each young woman will be provided with a notebook for assignments and should wear comfortable clothing for yoga
postures.
The mission of Sacred Sistahs, Inc. is to empower, serve, and improve the overall health, well-being, spirit, and vitality of African
American and African women and children. Since 2004, Sacred Sistahs, Inc. has conducted rites-of-passage programs and provided
mentorship to young women to inspire and promote self esteem and positive self concept through an ongoing process of nourishing
and elevating the spirit, mind, and body. Our motto is sisters in solidarity teaching and healing our spirit through prayer,
empowerment, affirmation, and knowledge.
