BAYA Beautiful As You Are

BAYA Beautiful As You Are B.A.Y.A which stands for "Beautiful As You Are" was created for young girls who need a safe place to talk and want to have fun with other girls their age!

The goal of this group is to teach girls that they are so much more than their reflection in the mirror by constantly reinforcing there is much more to life than what you look like or what your peers think of you. Since 2014 B.A.Y.A has grown from 7 girls to over 100 in the Louisville, KY area.
