CHRYSALIS: Teen and "Mama Butterfly" Programs
We're super excited to invite you to the next cycle of our inspiring program honoring TEEN GIRLS (14-17) and THE WOMEN WHO ARE CLOSEST TO THEM... Mothers. Aunties (by blood or heart) or Grandmas.
Teens will meet once a week for 8 weeks. 6 sessions will be online/Zoom, 2 sessions will be with a mother or auntie (though mixed only for part of that). Those combined in-person sessions are Covid-safe, day-long (5 hours) and will include a hike, journaling, a craft, and shared meal. Blended days will be in the Mid-Hudson Valley, New York, location to be announced.
Teens: Mondays 7-9 pm. Please note that girls are welcome even without a participating adult.
Adults: Will be meeting for the in-person sessions at the beginning and end of the program ONLY- unless there is an overwhelming interest in more frequent/weekly sessions.
Helping girls grow into confident and limitless adults, Chrysalis creates safe spaces for teen girls to feel honored and celebrated as they step into their most authentic selves. In partnership with Ulster County’s Youth Bureau, and with the generous support of The Maya Gold Foundation, Chrysalis provides tools to teen girls to support them in navigating the wilderness of the teen years during Covid, inviting them to express themselves openly and honestly. Together through weekly Zoom sessions and optional safe monthly in-person gatherings, we are cultivating the next generation of empowered youth.
Not only do we HAVE A FEW OPEN SPOTS for Teens, but we are excited to announce that we are now expanding the program to offer a New Coinciding Mama Circle to support and honor the women who are closest to our teens.
Together we explore relatable topics such as beauty, relationships, and dreams through many forms of creative expression like journaling, collaging, and craft. In circle, we laugh, explore, play, discover, connect, and create lasting relationships with one another as each member steps into their greatest potential. JOIN US!

Again, if you are (or know) a girl who may want to participate who doesn't have an older female in mind, feel free to contact us as her participation is still welcome.
