To ensure a meaningful community impact, the Lady Hawks prioritize recurring programming in conjunction with organizational partners that serve women and youth across Atlanta.

The initiative will focus on self-esteem, healthy relationships, goal setting and decision-making. The initiative will culminate with a special prom dress selection event that aims to instill a sense of pride and confidence as the teens prepare for a much-anticipated occasion in their high school experience.
