Jana Marie Foundation’s Embrace! program provides young women across Centre County an opportunity to build personal strength and self-confidence through a fun and interactive day.
Drawing on the expertise of Jana Marie Foundation’s board and special guests, the day’s program features a range of topics from enhancing self-confidence, to team-building, to health and well-being, to creative expression, to self-defense.
