  STANISLAUS COUNTY – A little guidance and some practical life help. This philosophy is what has charged fifteen area young women to make it through a 10-month program designed to help them make solid life decisions and to create a positive future.

There will be a graduation ceremony on January 20, from 6:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. for the youth development program. The festivities will be held at the Vintage Gardens at 4342 Dale Road in Modesto.

The youth, ages 14 – 18, will go through a graduation ceremony as they are dressed in prom and party dresses. They will enjoy dinner and dancing to a D.J. in addition to the formal graduation ceremony.

The youth development program has been a pilot program conducted jointly by The R.E.A.L. Project, the McHenry Medical Office, the Women’s Auxiliary and the Teen Life Challenge Project. McHenry Medical Office and The R.E.A.L. Project are divisions of the Stanislaus County Health Services Agency.
