 Organization: BUILD Group: Becoming Women Mission: Becoming Women (a program of BUILD - Broader Urban Involvement and Leadership Development) helps young women to create a positive vision of the future by presenting them with alternatives to the streets, and options that demonstrate that their futures are in no way limited by their current circumstances and surroundings. Each relationship and activity allows them to learn that the streets are a dead end and that college and a meaningful career can be theirs. Through these activities, the girls also develop a peer support network that will help them to stop the cycle of abuse and violence by supporting each other's efforts to apply the new life skills and coping strategies they are learning which are necessary to function as healthy, self-sufficient and productive citizens.
