...Executive Summary This report was composed to examine the demise of the sense of community in the City of Memphis. The communities in the City of Memphis are in distress due to the breakdown of family values, which are derived from the matriarchs. Currently, there is a need for women of all ages to get assistance with handling issues that sometimes affect the general overall health – mentally, physically and emotionally. Sometimes circumstances and forces beyond one’s control may put a female in a position of desperation and give her a feeling of solitude. Through “Reach One, Teach One, Girls United Across the World” outreach program, the goal is to provide a place where girls and women of all ages can and will join together to share their lives (both the successes and failures) with one another as a chain linked support system. The dynamics of this program will help with the difficulties faced and will assist each one of them with overcoming overwhelming and dismal obstacles, through a stringent support system. The objectives of this program will be to deliver direction and provide quality educational and training programs which will effectively meet the challenging needs of the participants within the program. These objectives will then, in turn, provide participants with the opportunity to make themselves more confident and effectively armed with tools that will help them become better citizens. The cost of implementing the programming will be dependent upon private...
