Leadership and Integrity
Become teaches the importance of integrity
in life and in relationships.
Do what you say you’re going to do when
you say you’re going to do it. Be your
word.
Diversity
Become strives to create an environment that
mirrors the diverse socio-economic and ethnic
mix found in the real world. We bring together
a diverse group of young women who respect
and learn from each other’s differences
while also discovering that which they share
in common.
Trust
Become seeks to create a comfortable and safe
environment where trust can develop, so that
participants can openly share their personal
views, feelings, and goals—outside
of the social circles and pressures they
face at school.
Opportunity
Become prepares young women for the future
by equipping each young woman with a ‘‘toolbox’’ of
tangible life skills and her own personalized ‘‘roadmap’’ necessary
to focus on her chosen career path.
Commitment
Become believes in the power of commitment
and asks each young woman to declare what
it is they are committed to and to take the
necessary steps to make it happen.
Personal Growth
Become goes beyond the scope of basic academic
guidance and develops young women from the
inside out with a focus on self-awareness,
self-love, empowerment, and wholeness.
Power of Choice
Become believes that each of us has the power
to choose and create our own opportunities
regardless of life circumstances.
Connection and Giving Back
Become encourages young women to contribute
their unique talents to their community and
to one another.
Individuality
Become honors and celebrates individuality
and encourages young women to discover and
express their uniqueness in the world.
