Neyema, Modeling Programming Youth Director, Fashion and Hairstyle, of
Northeast Philadelphia, PA.
Neyema, model educator for clothing and hair, of the
Northeast sector of Philly, Pa. is preparing young girls (children and teens)
to be launched in 2015. Neyema, promoter
of her own modeling program, is a
long-term client modeling management intervention for disconnected
youth whose obstacles such as lack of education, homelessness, trauma,
substance abuse, and court involvement prevent them from accessing resources
and achieving educational, employment, and healthy living goals.
Neyema, a skilled fashion and hair style model
involving mini-shows and larger shows develop model activities to help young
ladies work on their self-esteem issues.
Neyema encourages on a one-on-one modeling education
basis with each youth to remove barriers, proactively encourage participation
in a broad set of modeling services, and connect them to other needed resources
through participation in a broad set of her very own services, and connect them
to other needed resources within the community so they may make a successful
transition to adulthood and reconnect to their families and communities.
“Our
mission,” says Neyema, is to bring a group of young females together and
reassuringly help them to build their self-esteem and to become confident
within themselves.
According to Neyema, throughout the past couple years there have been an
increasing number of young girls with low self-esteem. A report by the charity Girl Guiding assisted
with Neyema’s view of statistics:
“The
overall proportion of those surveyed who were not happy with their looks rose
to 33% this year, from 29% last year and 26% two years ago. The 63% happy with
how they look has fallen from 73% two years ago to 63% now At ages 14 to 16,
51% of girls are unhappy with their appearance, and even after that age, 52%
are still unhappy.
Neymea,
will help youngsters understand from personal experience as well that “it is
known to many how it feels to feel un-pretty, or left out, or just not good
enough for the rest. And this is why my own idea is being brought to youngster to
try and reach out to them and others”.
Neyema’s goal is to help make an impact on certain aspects of young girls’ lives, especially, Black girls, to show them that they are capable in doing whatever it is their hearts may desire.
This will be done by allowing the girls to express themselves freely through
fashion.
Neyema, working across programs to address all the youth’s needs, she will work with youth over an extended period of time, approximately 4 to 6 years if necessary. Model Neyema, will also continue to work with youth even after they complete programs and services, ensuring a lasting impact by constantly moving towards academic success, long-term employment, and live healthy living skills.
The Philadelphia Front Page News-Magazine team will look forward to supporting Neyema’s dream of seeing youngsters become successful, even if it’s only making the photo cover of a magazine.
