Voices of Experience is an annual event hosted by the Women’s Foundation of Genesee Valley (New York). The event aims to provide hope and help to young people who are headed down the wrong path.
Briana] Watson is one of four women who will share their stories of success after overcoming challenges at this year’s Voices of Experience …
"The women share their stories with the girls and then the girls are asked to share any questions they would like to ask of the panelists, so there is an open mike session where the girls can just come up and ask what they want," said Susan Latoski, executive director of the foundation.” (Source: Democrat and Chronicle)
Watson was a troubled teen in her own right, not that long ago. She was failing several classes in high school and had no idea what she wanted from her future. Then she found a mentor who helped set her on a good path. Now she hopes to do the same for at least a few of the hundreds of girls expected to attend the event.
