“I feel a sisterhood…”
“This program has helped me immensely…”“I get more love and support here from most of these women than I do from my own family…”
Jump Start To The New You is centered on women of all ages and backgrounds who are committed to their journey of confidently becoming the best version of themselves. We provide free workshops that teach essential life skills aligning with our four pillars: Physical Fitness, Mental Alertness, Spiritual Empowerment, and Financial Stability. Our participants are then able to successfully pour into their children, spouses, careers, relationships, and families.
The Jump Start program can connect you with community resources that fit your needs, beyond the weekly workshops. We build community by creating a “sisterhood,” that supports learning, healing, inspiration, and empowerment. We will continue to work diligently to provide guidance and support through some of life’s toughest changes and transitions.
Jump Start To The New You began in 2012 to encourage women to set goals that would lead to positive life choices and direct action towards the completion of their goals. Our first annual Jump Start To The New You Post- Holiday Tea was held in January 2012. The month following, we held a series of workshops on Physical Fitness, Nutrition, Spiritual Empowerment, Mental Alertness and Financial Security. In the fall of 2014, we expanded the program to 12 workshops. We currently offer 34 workshops, which are now held over the course of the school year. The workshops focus on giving women the necessary information and skills to improve physically, emotionally and financially.
Jump Start To The New You weekly workshops are currently virtual with some in person potential. We are truly passionate about our overall well-being; mentally, spiritually, physically, and financially. We intentionally align ourselves with dynamic workshop speakers who are professionals in their fields within our community. Our speakers can strategically focus you to shift into a positive winner’s mindset. You can expect each workshop to empower and equip our you with the tools to invest in yourself to improve your quality of life. We want your dreams to become goals, and your goals become reality!
Our workshops include the following topics:
Since starting the program in 2012, we have helped participants find better housing, and gain mental, spiritual, and financial stability. In addition, several have found steady employment, and others are pursuing higher education. Although each woman is at a different place in her own personal journey, all of our participants have found the Jump Start To The New You program to be a beacon of light in an ever-changing world.
