Help underserved but deserving teen girls learn about all of the professional possibilities open to them!
 
Step Up is committed to giving teen girls the tools they need to explore their dreams and achieve them. Pathways to Professions is one of Step Up’s innovative career-exploration and preparation programs in which girls are exposed to a wide variety of professions through on-site field trip visits to companies, hands on workshops, visiting lecturers and networking opportunities.

• A fun, flexible and energetic attitude
• A commitment to attend at least two classes is suggested to get the most out of your volunteer experience
• • Specialized knowledge and experience in program topic area is welcomed, but not required

About Step Up Teen Programs
The mission of Step Up Teen Programs is to mentor, inspire and empower high school girls in underserved communities to achieve their dreams and reach their full potential. We do this through innovative after-school and Saturday enrichment programming that helps girls develop into the "total woman" - one who is confident, college-ready, career-minded and engaged in Step Up's cycle of philanthropy.

Our innovative programming includes: drama, photojournalism filmmaking, media awareness, poetry/spoken word, college prep, SAT prep, one-on-one mentoring, paid summer internships, and field trips to our members' offices.

To find out how to get involved with this or other teen programs, please contact Rachel Clayton, Program Manager, at 312-235-3276 or rachel@suwn.org
