Take Action Against Trafficking of Black Girls - Combating and Preventing Sex Trafficking of Black Girls: Promising Practices in Education and Mentoring
Learn about some promising practices from the field in the work to combat and prevent the sex trafficking of Black girls. In this video (3 of a 3-part series), you’ll learn about promising practices in education and mentoring.
We have a conversation with Randa Powell and Micah Jones from The Mentoring Center’s EMERGE Program. The Mentoring Center does some amazing work with the youth that they serve, providing transformative interaction, training and technical assistance, and developing training series about their direct care service work.
The EMERGE (Educating, Mentoring, Empowering, and Reaffirming our Girls for Excellence) Reentry Program is a promising alternative education program designed for Black girls and other girls of color who have been involved in the juvenile-legal or foster care systems.
A recently released evaluation from The National Black Women’s Justice Institute found that EMERGE successfully implemented strategies to repair Black girls’ bonds with school and restore a commitment to their educational success. EMERGE also implemented promising strategies to build pathways to college and employment for system-impacted Black girls that were hampered by external forces.
