Sagacity Summer 2026 – Healing Through Creative Expression

About This Event

Creative expression is a pathway to healing.

Sagacity is a trauma-informed, healing-centered leadership program for young women ages 13–19. Through writing, storytelling, reflection, and creative exploration, participants are supported in processing their experiences, building confidence, and strengthening their mental and emotional well-being.

In a time when many young women are navigating anxiety, depression, and disconnection, Sagacity creates space for:

  • Voice
  • Expression
  • Healing
  • Growth

Participants engage in an 8-week summer experience that blends:

  • Creative writing and anthology publishing
  • Emotional literacy and self-expression
  • Leadership and workforce development
  • Financial and digital literacy (each student receives a laptop)
  • Exploration days connecting students to real-world opportunities

This is not just a program—it is a healing-centered experience that leads to real, positive outcomes:

  • Increased confidence
  • Stronger decision-making
  • Improved emotional awareness
  • A sense of belonging and purpose
