Our partner medical providers from Christ Community Health Services, Regional One Health, and Church Health recently joined us for hands-on Liletta IUD insertion training at our Crosstown Concourse office. ๐Ÿ’™

During the training, providers strengthened their skills and learned more about paracervical blocks, an option that can help reduce discomfort during IUD insertion.

Weโ€™re grateful for our dedicated healthcare partners who continue to invest in their training and provide women with compassionate, high-quality reproductive healthcare.

If we made a Netflix documentary, we already know the title: The Ripple Effect of Empowering Women. ๐ŸŽฌ

When women have the resources and opportunities to reach their goals, the impact doesnโ€™t stop with them, it spreads through families and communities.

It starts with one woman having the opportunity to take her next step. Help us continue creating opportunities for women in Memphis by donating or volunteering, and watch the impact ripple outward. ๐Ÿ’™

Please join us in shining a light on our job shadows, Melia, a past Step Ahead Scholarship recipient, and Camryn, an ASAF volunteer! They spent a week with our team learning what it takes to run a nonprofit, gaining hands-on experience across multiple departments. โญ

Throughout their experience, they:
๐Ÿ’š Attended a Partners in Prevention (PiP) session with our Community Partnerships team
๐Ÿ’š Helped prepare for and participated in a Teen Talk session
๐Ÿ’š Sat in on team meetings to learn how our departments work together
๐Ÿ’š Presented portions of our Scholar Power Session
๐Ÿ’š Assisted with preparations for our 2026 Step Ahead Scholarship Drive-Thru
๐Ÿ’š Captured video testimonials & polaroids from this year's scholars at the event

Our Job Shadow Program gives past scholarship recipients and ASAF volunteers the opportunity to explore careers in the nonprofit sector, build professional skills, and gain real-world experience while making a meaningful impact.

We're so proud of Melia and Camryn for embracing every opportunity, and can't wait to see what they accomplish next! ๐Ÿ’™

Sending a special shout-out to Chika, our Health Educator, for leading this experience and investing her time, knowledge, and encouragement into our job shadows. Thank you for helping make this experience so meaningful!
