S.O.L.O.

S.O.L.O. (Sisters Overcoming Life’s Obstacles), a weekly support group for young women ages 14 to 21, provides support and encouragement to them as they face the day-to-day challenges of working for social change. “This is my support system, like my second family,” says one participant. S.O.L.O. works to promote self healing, creating a transformative culture among young women and offering a safe, welcoming space in which to talk about issues they face at home, at school and in their community.

Starting August 31, 2009. SOLO meets 4:30PM - 6PM every Thursday in The SPOT in the LE offices.


"LE has given me a support system and a new extended family. LE has also given me leadership and community activist skills."
