About
The Junior Melanin Collective is a dynamic organization that engages young women of color in stimulating and transformative ways, fostering growth in their mental, emotional, and physical well-being. Here, we encourage exploration of interests, values, and skills, while providing mentorship, community service initiatives, entrepreneurial and employment workshops, physical and mental wellness collaborations with local organizations, and relationship building with law enforcement and city leaders. 

Our programs are designed to empower young women of color to reach their full potential, both personally and professionally. We believe that by providing opportunities for young people to develop their skills and interests, we can help them become successful and productive members of society.

Through our mentorship program, we connect young people with experienced professionals who can offer guidance and support as they navigate their personal and professional lives. Our entrepreneurial and employment workshops provide valuable training and resources to help start their own businesses or find meaningful employment.

We also collaborate with wellness professionals to promote physical and mental wellness, offering workshops and activities that foster living and positive mental health. And through our community service initiatives, we encourage members to give back to their communities and make a positive impact on the world around them.

At the Junior Melanin Collective, we are committed to helping young people grow and thrive. Join us today and discover the many ways we can help you achieve your goals and reach your full potential.
