Come shine with Females at Best (F.A.B.) during the Family Resource Center Launch on Saturday, April 10 from 3:00-5:00 p.m. at the Hopewell Library. F.A.B.’s mission is to motivate young people to become self-sufficient and productive. They are striving to turn youth challenges into successful accomplishments.

Spend 45 minutes with them on Saturday, learning how to prepare for your big “Red Carpet Moments” on your personal world stage. You’ll participate in discussions about goal setting, etiquette, dressing for success, outreach, and more. You’ll leave with more confidence, class, creativity, and a larger sense of community.
