The King's Daughters, an education program, reaches out to young girls in a holistic religious fashion seeking to cultivate spirituality, ( a good sense of well - being ) leadership, self esteem, personal growth, and spiritual development ( a relationship with God ) within the inner city environs. The Program services young ladies who predominantly reside in the Roxbury, Dorchester, and Mattapan neighborhoods and is directed to those diverse ethnic and socio-economic backgrounds.

 

Our program strengths are in varied activities offered to balance social interactions while fostering ethical decision-making skills. Instruction includes a wide range of topics which includes but are not limited to: Personal Hygiene, Health Issues -- teen pregnancy and substance abuse, Morality and Modesty, Conflict Resolution, Peer Pressure, Social Graces, Caring for Others and College Preparatory Issues. The youths are exposed to Skills-Building techniques, etc., and Understanding God's Will for their lives.

 

Each class includes a graded curriculum , built-in distinctive, and age-related activities. The classes meet twice a month on the 2^nd and 4^th Saturdays from 10:00 a.m. until 12:00 noon. An Arts and Crafts component ( 10:00 - 12:00 noon on the 3^rd Saturday ) is offered for those ages 6 - 12.

 

The King's Daughters are given opportunities for leadership, mentoring and volunteering. These, coupled with a strong sense of self, moral character, interpersonal skills and individual spiritual growth, will steer each young lady towards a successful future. A very important component to the TKD Program is the mentoring relationship that exists between the groups' leaders and the youth. The program includes opportunities for fellowship and trips. The contact person for this program is Sister Patricia Garland.
