WET'S RISK TAKERS SERIES is a free program for New York City teenage girls. RISK TAKERS is a powerful program for girls who are interested in learning communication, leadership and media-literacy skills. RISK TAKERS is designed to empower each and every girl to be her best, brightest and bravest self; to recognize and challenge stereotypes; to walk down the street with confidence and safety; to make new friends with ease; to learn how to identify ones' dreams and make them come true; to understand the difference between an empowering risk and a damaging risk; and to learn how to look at all media-tv, film, internet, magazines, advertising - with a savvy eye.
RISK TAKERS will teach you how to push personal limits by taking empowered risks to follow your dreams. Plus RISK TAKERS introduces you to positive female role models whom you have probably only seen in movies or read about in magazines. These role models are celebrated female actors, writers, directors and producers who choose to participate in the program in order to reinforce the essence of the program: be courageous, be respectful, and be true to yourself.
