Dayla will develop the Sisterhood Teen Empowerment Program (STEP) targeted toward high school-age, young women of color from Providence. The program's goal is to provide an open space for young women that will allow for self-expression and interaction. Her vision is to foster creativity, leadership and sisterhood among the participants by engaging them in designing and producing a video documentary dealing with issues the young women are facing in their lives.
