Video series: Blackbird Fly – Young Women’s Workshop 








These videos are heartbreaking but also hopeful? What's it all about though?

What is Blackbird Fly?
Blackbird fly is a proactive response to the condition of young women in our communities. Many of whom have not had the proper training to go from girls to young ladies. The world has moved around them, and in some cases right by them, far too fast. Blackbird Fly is focused on giving these young women a window into what life not only could be like for them…. but SHOULD be like for them.
