The Melpomene Program offers assistance and resources for women of color to create their own projects to address the health disparities faced by women and girls in their communities. You could set up:
- a walking club
- a healthy cooking course
- a girls’ basketball clinic
- an exercise class
- a body image discussion group
- a healthy parenting class for new mothers
- or any other project to improve the health of women or girls
Help create a healthier community while gaining skills in project management and leadership. A Melpomene project is a great opportunity for women and girls interested in public health, community work, or a self-directed volunteer experience that can have a lasting impact. We will give you the tools to design a work plan, recruit participants, and measure your success.
