Why GlowUp Youth Workshops?

GlowUp Youth Workshops address critical gaps in mental health support and arts education, particularly for marginalized communities. Facilitated by a licensed clinical social worker and certified fashion stylist, the program uses fashion as an armor for resilience, self-esteem, and identity.

GlowUp engages teens to understand their thoughts and feelings and make empowered behavioral changes, fostering creativity and emotional freedom through dialectical and cognitive behavioral coaching, mindfulness, and the expressive arts. By integrating these elements, GlowUp destigmatizes mental health, inspires positive transformations, and supports youth in discovering their purpose and self-worth.
