The 4C’s Youth Civility

The 4 C’s are Civility, Community, Creativity and Climate Change. BlessedGirl Founder, Dr. Anana Phifer-Derilhomme created this platform and curriculum to allow young people to see themselves as a solution by creating opportunity for them to learn, develop, speak and write about one are multiple C’s. Often adults consider youth especially troubled youth or disadvantaged youth as the problem. Dr. Anana wants to change that narrative and provide a way for young people to see themselves as a solution to the problems in their own community. We need our young people to be empowered with possibility and tap into their creativity and make change happen.

 “Let us not discount our young people but rather let us invest and believe in them.” Dr. Anana Phifer-Derilhomme.

The Children’s Organization is currently raising funds to provide musical instruments for the children, as we believe music is life and that’s why we have heartbeats. We ask that you join us because “If you help the children of today, you help the adults of tomorrow”
