What Is TWTS?

Teen Girls have so much to say

We're here to give them a platform to say it!

We are looking for 13-18 year old girls to participate in a 3-Day program where they will find their voice and develop their own personal story. The weekend is full of communication skill building, confidence enhancing exercises, and public speaking coaching with our caring mentors. Teens will develop and write a personal story and on the final day, stand on a stage and proudly share their story in front of a live audience.
