#ThePrimpLifePlan is a is a comic and workshop series that illuminates the groundbreaking potential the target population holds through an influential character who empowers them to contribute meaningful and positive change to society via positive decision making. #ThePrimpLifePlan will be produced and distributed as a guide and workshop series in schools and organizations throughout North Carolina to bolster the confidence and self-image of girls ages 10-14 from under resourced communities. Unlike, other children books, #ThePrimpLifePlan is the first comic in a series of motivational publications for young women in which it is made to tackle the root issue of the cycle of mediocrity prevalent in the educational culture of under resourced communities.
Problem: 80% of children entering the first grade scored “high” on the self-esteem inventory. But by the fifth grade only 20% scored “high” and by the 12th grade only 5% (http://thejnpproject.com/hot-topics/kids-self-esteem-statistics/). Further exacerbating the problem, my target population of Wayne County is ranked 77th out of 100 North Carolina districts for educational performance (https://k12.niche.com/rankings/public-school-districts/best-overall/s/north-carolina/). Based on my Prudential Community Award-winning book “How to Primp Life,” I will develop a new comic and curriculum to bolster the confidence of girls aged 10-14 in Goldsboro, North Carolina.
My commitment will allow these girls to see their full potential and overcome the statistics. #ThePrimplifePlan is inspired by the desire to want to see girls from an under resourced community, like myself, reach their full potential and overcome adversity. It is necessary for my target population to see a reflection of themselves achieving greatness. This need has inspired me to create the first comic in a series of motivational publications for young women to tackle the root issue of the cycle of mediocrity prevalent in the educational culture of Goldsboro. This comic will also seek to put positive images of a forgotten community in a place where they will always see a reflection of themselves going beyond to achieve greatness so they can replicate this in their daily lives as I know they can!
