And so a few key staff people
and a few key racial ethnic young women put our heads together,
solicited some seed money, hired an intern, gathered a core group
of racial ethnic young women, and stepped back to see what they
would come up with. It began as a "Racial Ethnic Young Women's
Initiative." Within a year and a half, that core group has
developed a strong identity, a sense of purpose and a commitment
to providing a safe place for racial ethnic young women to explore
how their Christian faith informs the issues they face on a regular
basis. |
