On behalf of Mujer, Inc., and our Project Mana program, I invite you to attend our 15th Annual Leadership Retreat. The Retreat will be held at Chapel Rock Conference Site in Prescott, AZ during the weekend of November 12th, 13th, and 14th, 2010. This year’s theme, “Voces De Carnaval” is a gender based and culturally appropriate curriculum that is designed to encourage a positive self-concept, social competence and the development of problem solving and communication tools that will serve our young Latinas well as they move through life’s journeys. Voces de Carnaval is a hands on curriculum that weaves in cultural tools and knowledge through targeted and interactive activities designed to empower and develop artistic inquiry and creativity.
The retreat is sponsored by Mujer, Inc. and includes lodging, meals, transportation, group photograph,
t-shirt, gift bags, snacks, and activity projects. There is a registration fee of $20.00 per participant, payable to Mujer, Inc. and due with your application.
