GEM is launching its new Diamond Program in April 2015.  The Diamond Program provides monthly character cultivation workshops for girls ages 11-18 with mothers in prison.  We strive to equip our girls with the tools necessary to break the cycle of incarceration and make positive life choices in spite of their circumstances.  To ensure our girls lead successful lives with vision and purpose, the Diamond Program workshops enhance self-esteem, develop leadership skills, create recognition of health and wellness, establish social and life skills and instill moral values.  The Diamond Program also strengthens our girls’ sense of civic engagement and awareness by offering them the opportunity to give back to the community through service.  Through these activities our girls develop real-world abilities that will last them a lifetime.
