Voices was created to address the unique needs of adolescent girls and young women. It encourages them to seek and celebrate their "true selves" by providing a safe space, encouragement, structure, and the support they need to embrace their journeys of self-discovery.
The participant's journal utilizes a research-based process called Interactive Journaling® which is listed on SAMHSA's National Registry of Evidence-based Programs and Practices (NREPP) website. In the context of girls' lives, structured journaling provides an outlet for creativity, personal expression, exploration, and application of new concepts and skills.
