B.A.Y.A. Center - Clarksville, IN

All our services will be provided to the community at no charge!

The space has two large rooms. Our multi-purpose room will be used for B.A.Y.A. programming, different community programs, dance classes, step classes and other empowering sessions for girls and women. The second room will be our B.A.Y.A. Decompression room. This room will be very special because it will be a safe space for our girls. This space will allow the girls to come in and just unwind without worrying about anything. They will be allowed to use aroma therapy, sit at our stress relief/sensory table, listen to soft music or just relax in their own way.

According to the CDC between 1999 and 2016 suicide increased by 25% nationwide. Suicide is now ranked the 10th leading causes of death overall. For girls between the ages of 1-19 suicide is the 3rd leading cause of death.

Our goal with this space is to cut down on suicide, self-harm and bullying in our community by teaching girls’ positive ways to cope with their stress.

Population(s) Served

Women and girls

Each week the B.A.Y.A. program goes into different JCPS schools, Boys and Girls Clubs, community centers and groups homes. We teach and encourage positive self-esteem in girls ages 6-18. We do this through interactive workshops and fun activities.
