💜 MEET THE SAFE VOICES TEAM: TAYLOR

Taylor serves as the Prevention & Education Coordinator at Hearts of Hope: Center for Sexual Trauma and has spent more than a decade working in victim advocacy, prevention, education, and community outreach.

Throughout her career, Taylor has believed that prevention starts with connection, creating spaces where young people feel safe enough to talk, learn, ask questions, and know that someone is listening.

Through Girl Talk and Girl Talk: Rising Leaders, she has watched girls who once hesitated to speak up begin to recognize their strengths, trust their voices, and step into leadership.

Those relationships are what make Safe Voices so meaningful to her. This event represents a full-circle moment: young women she once welcomed into Girl Talk are now helping create a space designed to encourage, educate, and empower the next group of girls.

For Taylor, that is what prevention is all about, giving girls the knowledge, support, confidence, and opportunities they need before a crisis ever happens.

💬 Personal Motto:
“When a young woman finds her voice, she discovers just how powerful she can be.”

Safe Voices | November 14, 2026
Open to girls ages 15–18
Space is limited to 30 girls!

💜 MEET THE SAFE VOICES TEAM: JADEYN

Jadeyn is a 17-year-old student at Loreauville High School. She participated in Girl Talk in 2024 and returned for Girl Talk: Rising Leaders in 2026.

Although she lives in New Iberia, Jadeyn has dedicated many of her Saturday mornings to making the trip to Morgan City to participate in Rising Leaders. Through both programs, she has stepped outside of her comfort zone, built confidence, and strengthened her leadership skills.

💬 “Learning to step outside of your comfort zone can be scary, but it can also be where some of the biggest growth happens.”

At Safe Voices, Jadeyn will put those leadership skills into action by helping lead the Healthy Relationships, Boundaries, & Consent session.

Jadeyn wants Safe Voices to feel real, not like another program where girls just sit and listen. She wants girls to connect, have conversations, laugh, learn, and leave feeling like they gained something from the experience.

Looking toward her own future, Jadeyn hopes to one day become an orthodontist.

✨ Want to be part of the experience Jadeyn and the Rising Leaders are creating?

Safe Voices is open to girls ages 15–18, and space is limited to 30.

Saturday, November 14, 2026

📚✏️ A New School Year Begins with Your Support! 💜

As students across St. Mary, Iberia, St. Martin, and Assumption Parishes prepare to head back to the classroom, Chez Hope is asking our incredible community to help make the transition a little easier for local children and families.

For many of the families we serve, purchasing school supplies can be a financial challenge while they are rebuilding their lives. A simple donation can help ease that burden and give a child the confidence to walk into the first day of school feeling prepared and ready to succeed.

We're currently accepting NEW school supplies, including:
🖍️ Crayons, markers, colored pencils, and pencils
📓 Notebooks, folders, binders, and loose-leaf paper
🎒 Mesh or clear backpacks
🧴 Hand sanitizer, disinfecting wipes, tissues, and paper towels
✂️ Scissors, glue sticks, rulers, and other classroom essentials

Every donation—big or small—helps provide more than school supplies. It reminds a child that their community believes in them and is cheering them on as they begin a new school year.

💜 If you're not able to donate, you can still make a meaningful impact by sharing this post. Your share helps us reach more people who may be able to contribute and ensures more children receive the supplies they need.

To arrange a drop-off or pick-up, or to learn more, please call 337-242-9595.

Together, we can help every child start the school year equipped for success and surrounded by the support of a caring community. 🍎📚💜
