Self Enhancement, Inc. - Youth Potential Realized
I just found out that this exists! This is more than a mentorship program or a "get kids off the street" type organization. This institute exposes youth (ages 8-25) to various avenues of life so God's given talents and gifts can be tapped into and developed. This is what life is about...discovering and being exposed to what God put you on earth for so you can do it. It takes exposure. It takes teaching. It takes encouragement. It takes vision. And it takes allowing people to be who they really are! Please take a look. Hopefull this model will spread across the world. It like a human development institute. Since, somehow, we humans are the best and developing ourselves and our specific constituents, we have a model to be used along with the Bible and God's teaching. Take a look!
Also,
PARTNERS IN DIVERSITY invites you to attend the next quarterly reception to welcome new Professionals of Color to Oregon/SW Washington. This fun summer event is one not to be missed! It is supported by a growing coalition of major employers and community partners working together to support diversity in the workplace and community.
The place to meet, greet and connect! All supporters of diversity in the workplace and community are welcome!
