Near and dear to her heart is a program she crafted for Step Up Women’s Network (www.suwn.org) called “Photojournalism for Girls”/the “I Dream to…”Project which has taught over 200 under-served teen girls in LA, NY and Chicago the skills of photojournalism as a tool to meet with the very woman they dream to be.  The earliest images were distributed in Self Magazine, Crystal Light/Kraft Foods displayed the images on it’s mobile tour, NBC broadcast a piece, and she introduced GettyImages to the program where a show was held for the girls in NY in 2008.  Step Up, with the sponsorship of SanDisk (www.sandisk.com) hosted a gallery show for the current students in May 2010 in Los Angeles, and the program will run again in Fall 2010/Winter 2011.
