Everyone deserves a chance to rewrite their story.
We’re committed to empowering families through innovative workshops designed to build resilience, strengthen relationships, and support emotional well-being.
Workshops that empower young people to take control of their lives.
The Second Story Project is dedicated to offering these young people compassion, empathy, and unconditional support. Throughout the Empowerment Workshop, participants will experience a nurturing environment where they are empowered to take control of their lives. While they may have faced adversity, we aim to teach them skills that help them unlock their potential and create a new "second story" for their lives—one filled with hope and possibility.
Workshops that equip parents with the tools to support their child’s growth.
Additionally, we will host a Parenting Workshop simultaneously with the Empowerment Workshop. Each participating adolescent is required to have one parent attend. This workshop will equip parents with tools to better support their child's growth, including active listening, boundary setting, positive reinforcement, stress management, and self-care strategies.
The Empowerment Workshop
Our Empowerment Workshop is a transformative, three-day event focusing on personal growth, self-discovery, and practical life skills. It will provide adolescents with a supportive community and a holistic approach to development—encompassing their spiritual, mental, emotional, and physical well-being. The workshop includes evidence-based techniques such as visualization, goal setting, and positive affirmations. To ensure lasting change, we will offer a weekly process group after the workshop to help participants integrate what they’ve learned. Our Empowerment Workshop includes…

The Second Story Project is reaching out to share an incredible opportunity to make a lasting impact on the lives of adolescents in our community designed to help young people overcome personal obstacles, build confidence, and pursue their dreams.
Many of the adolescents we are going to work with have faced challenging environments during their upbringing, including physical, emotional, psychological, and sexual abuse, as well as neglect and bullying. These experiences can have profound effects on their mental health, self esteem, behavior, academic performance, and relationships. Addressing these issues early is crucial to their recovery and future well-being.
