Welcome to the Young Queens Reading Circle!

At the D.A.N.A. Johnson Foundation, we believe every young girl deserves a place where her voice is heard, her confidence is nurtured, and her dreams are encouraged.

The Young Queens Reading Circle is more than a book club—it’s a sisterhood where girls ages 10–12 come together to read inspiring books, engage in meaningful discussions, build friendships, strengthen literacy skills, and discover the power of their own voices.

Today, we’re excited to introduce the incredible young readers who make this program so special. Welcome to our Young Queens! 📚👑💙🧡

Too many young people lack mentorship.

Too many veterans struggle in silence.

Too many justice-impacted individuals face barriers to rebuilding their lives.
