🌟 Kicking off Career Week with Diamond Bolling Miss SC Plus America 🌟

We had an inspiring start to Career Week with a visit from Miss SC Plus! She shared her incredible journey in the world of pageantry, highlighting the dedication, confidence, and poise it takes to succeed in this competitive field. But her story didn't stop there—she also delved into her path as an entrepreneur, offering valuable insights into building a personal brand and turning passion into a thriving business.
Also, she is traveling to Houston, Texas, to compete in the Miss Plus America Pageant and We wish her the best of luck and know she will shine brightly on that stage. Thank you, Miss SC Plus, for your empowering words and presence! 💼👑✨

Media and technology are at the center of children’s lives every day. With more of life happening online, what catches their attention isn’t always what’s best for them. As a parent or caregiver, you may SEE a child interacting with media daily, and you can be equipped with the tools and resources to make sure any environment (including online) is free from any abuse. Learn more at commonsensemedia.org/articles/online-safety.

Save the dates! April 15-19, the Judson YMCA will participate in the Five Days of Action campaign to increase awareness of child sexual abuse and how all adults can prevent it when we “Know. See. Respond.” We pledge to protect the children we serve, and we hope you will too! Head over to fivedaysofaction.org to learn more!
