Exceptionally Me Mentoring Program
The Exceptionally Me program is a girls-only, safe space gathering that meets weekly. A typical session features a guided conversation and activity led by our mentoring team. Sessions might address topics related to school, relationships with family, friends and boys, careers, health or other pressing issues identified by our mentees.
About Exceptionally Me
Creating a safe environment that fosters critical thinking about life, leadership and sound decision making.
Exceptionally Me is dedicated to developing positive character traits and encourages self-accountability. It is important that our mentees learn valuable communication skills to help further develop independent leadership abilities. Through goal setting, our girls work on reaching tangible objectives. These skills are essential to success in school, work and life.
The National Coalition of 100 Black Women Inc., Metropolitan Washington, DC Chapter has partnered with the Columbia Heights Education Campus to continue our Exceptionally Me program. Together, we are committed to the empowerment of young girls through strong leadership and mentorship. Chapter members are accomplished professional women from various industries and leadership levels.
Our 9-month long program runs from October to June and is for middle and high school girls from all socio-economic backgrounds. Each month features sessions that are facilitated by mentors participating alongside the mentees. These enriching sessions focus on key life development skills while integrating STEM throughout the program.
