There is a path forward after a cancer diagnosis.
We'll help you get there.
Free monthly workshops for women seeking a sisterhood of support and empowering tools for emotional well-being.
Join us at Spark!
Free monthly empowering workshops!
Over 500 women in the New Orleans and St. Tammany areas have participated in You Night Empowering Programs and we invite you to join our incredibly strong and supportive community of survivors.
Spark is not a traditional support group, but you will find a ton of support by attending.
Who are we? You Night is a sisterhood comprised of women who have battled or are battling any type of cancer. Women who enter our programs are experiencing a variety of personal journeys, from stage zero to stage 4. Some are still in treatment, and others have been declared "NED" but are still emotionally struggling. You Night has created a variety of programs that draw on the power of your mind, body and spirit to uncover the strength within you. Being around other women who "get it" can be an incredible source of power. Workshops will take place one a month March - September, 2022. While each workshop stands alone, we recommend you attend as many as possible to get the maximum benefits.
Hi Sparklers! Thank you to those of you who were able to attend Battle of the Models! We enjoyed watching each of you soar on stage as you continue to transform through your individual journeys.
We have a bunch of photos and videos on your SPARK private group page. To join the SPARK page, click here and answer the questions. Note: Only those who have attended workshops (or team leaders) are welcome to join to protect the privacy of the members.
