ABOUT HOMEWORKS
A Free, Community-Based After-School Residential Program Equipping the Next Generation of Girl+ Leaders
Mission
HomeWorks inspires and equips young women from marginalized communities to achieve their potential and positively transform the world around them by providing a supportive and educational residential environment.
Vision
In the future, we see communities of young women around the world breaking down educational and gender barriers to social justice.
Values
HomeWorks centers our values of empathy, community, and
intentionality in
everything we do.
Going Global
Our goal is to establish HomeWorks chapters across the country and around the world. Together, we will create communities where young women live, learn, and grow alongside one another, unlocking their full potential. Through chapter exchanges and global experiences, our scholars will gain new perspectives and ultimately return to their communities as changemakers.
Trenton Community Statement
Specifically in Trenton, New Jersey, HomeWorks aims to work alongside our scholars to disrupt the narrative that Black and Latinx girls’ lives are defined by the cyclical effects of systemic injustice. We accomplish this by providing a space to explore and reclaim power over their experiences, cultures and identities, and fostering a community of young women dedicated to breaking down social injustices in their home communities and beyond.
