 As an addition to its South Florida programming, Tracy Mourning and Honey Shine Inc. collaborated with MC Lyte and Hip Hop Sisters Foundation to introduce the afterschool program in two elementary schools in Los Angeles, California. Implementation of the the Honey Shine Mentoring Program has been facilitated by the United Teachers Los Angeles (UTLA), in efforts to successfully promote the program initiatives to young girls in the LA market. Honey Shine's principle values and programmatic objectives directly align with the UTLA initiative "The Schools LA Students Deserve," and the schools and principals have expressed their delight in welcoming the program into their schools. |
