Our Mission
SPEAK’s mission is to support and celebrate the voices of all young women and girls.
Our Impact
We believe that Vocal Empowerment is an imperative tool for mentors, teachers, community members, and young women to use when empowering their voices. Vocal Empowerment is characterized by reaching a state of comfort and ability with vocal expression that allows a one’s intended content to be expressed.

“Vocal empowerment is growing in your level of comfort and confidence, in using your voice to express whatever is inside of you and believing that what you have to say is worthwhile and is important.”
