MEMBERSHIP SHE Meets Social Sessions Our Members told us that as well as the range of professional development opportunities we offer, they are also interested in a more social and fun outlet. We listened to our Members, and this year proudly launched SHE Meets Social Sessions. The new initiative attracted Office for Youth funding to secure the development and delivery of SHE Meets in its first year. SHE Meets Social Sessions are delivered by young women for young women providing a social outlet for like-minded young women to come together and set the agenda for fun events. SHE Meets Social Sessions are for YWCA of Adelaide Members, but non-Members can come along to see if they enjoy it. Since launching in early 2014 SHE Meets Social Sessions have gathered for a Fringe Festival outing and delivered a powerful Speed Mentoring event with inspiring women in leadership. A Steering Committee has been established providing event and leadership development opportunities, with an ongoing schedule of SHE Meets Social Sessions planned for the future.
