Who We Serve: The young women and girls who we serve reflect the rich diversity of the SoMa district and other neighborhoods throughout San Francisco. They range in age from 11 years to 24 years. They are Latina, African American, Asian, Arab, Pacific Islander, White, and multiracical. The majority are first generation Americans, however, many of them are also recent immigrants. Most speak languages other than English in their homes. They are all unique and often times face hardships of acculturation while striving to maintain pride within their own heritages.
