designed to explore the ways in which urban adolescent African American
girls experience their world and the ways in which they are affected by
those experiences. The Project is a partnership between the
Ohio Department of Mental Health, Fran Frazier RSR Principal
Investigator, and Mental Health America of Summit County. Data
collection for Rise Sister Rise is supported by women networks and
organizations in Akron, Columbus, Dayton and Lima. This work will guide
us in supporting African American girls across all of Ohio. The
research is funded through a grant to the Office of the Governor from
the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p style='margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt'><span style='font-size:

social relationships, school performance and commitment to learning,
about the significant adults in their lives, their exposure to
violence, their satisfaction with their gender and race, about their
values and identity, risky behaviors, leisure activities and
aggression. In addition to collecting data through focus groups and
surveys, Rise Sister Rise pays particular attention to establishing
local coalitions, offering resiliency activities, building community
awareness, promoting civic engagement and developing local action plans
to help resolve the barriers girls may be experiencing and supporting
the resiliency girls are using to navigate their way to success and
well-being. By March, over 400 girls will have participated in
our survey. We look forward to communicating the research
findings soon.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
