The Success rate of our program continues to set the standard. Major shoutout and congratulations to Lanae Riley for being pinned at the The University of Akron college of Nursing ceremony yesterday! Sports bring us together but it’s the lessons in between that define our greatness!! 🖤❤️
Our Director of Programs and Innovation wanted our younger girls to talk to current and former athletes so she created an event. The Life After Sports Summit was a MAJOR success!! Thank you to all of our sponsors and supporters.

Never abandon the basic fundamentals they transfer to all areas of life. Week 1 of our project based learning experience. The girls are active researchers working in teams, creating their own definitions and learning WITH each other and the instructors. Our founder Kenny Jo-Jo Smith is a certified teacher and leads this process with Kent State University and students from the college of Education.
We will be seeking community partners for interviews and participation very soon!!
