  About the Film: The Ripple Effect: Our Stories
  The Ripple Effect: Our Stories documents the everyday experiences of girls and young women of color living in Washington, DC. Young women get behind the camera and let us look in on their world, telling us – in their own words – what it’s like to grow up in the District of Columbia. This powerful collection of stories highlights their struggles and triumphs while pointing to the need for greater community investment in the lives of girls and young women of color. 
  About Sister to Sister/Hermana a Hermana
  Sister to Sister / Hermana a Hermana (STS/HAH) is an arts and leadership program that works with girls and young women of color, ages 9-21, in the Ward 1 neighborhoods of Washington, DC.

Through workshops and activities held in centers and schools, STS/HAH provides opportunities for girls and young women to become creative agents of change in their personal lives and in their community.
