Working with Youth
Omega Print

Omega is an online peer educator with MySistahs.

Greetings! I am a fun loving person and I enjoy meeting new people and going new places. I have been up and down the East coast of the United States, out West, and to South Africa. I am currently in graduate school for social work. I believe that my life's purpose is to help others and I’m glad that I work in a profession that allows me to do so.

I have been working in the sexual health field for almost eight years, and I enjoy every minute of it—from giving presentations about the connection of self-esteem to sexual behavior, to sitting down with my fellow "Sistahs" to plan our work with Advocates For Youth! Working in different communities has taught me how important it is that young people everywhere have the resources and knowledge they need to lead healthy and fulfilling lives.

I know the pressures that females face as we mature and how being a minority can sometimes add to those complications. It can be difficult to know where to turn when you face major life issues, but you don't have to face your problems alone.
