BRAVE

BRAVE is a catalytic movement whose aim is to educate and empower girls in Grade 7-12, that come from vulnerable situations, with hopes to engage them before they become victims of sexual exploitation and trafficking.

The three pillars of Brave are:

• We See You – you matter
• We Believe in You – you can do it
• We Are With You – you are not alone

Locally in Kamloops we host a large event annually which is structured to deliver a message of hope, love, value and purpose, achieved by bringing in guest speakers, crafters, other experts, and community leaders some of whom have walked through adversity and can clearly demonstrate that there is light at the end of the tunnel. 50 girls come together for a day of fun and learning and go home with full hearts, bellies and arms!

Throughout the rest of the year, we host a monthly Brave Circle. A smaller group of girls meet with us and we discuss the issues they are facing in their day-to-day lives – from peer pressure to eating disorders, we show them that they are loved and have worth, just because they exist.
