Earn your badges
Twelve milestones. One confident young woman.
Badges at PMPYG are not stickers. Each one takes real workshops, a real challenge, and a signed affidavit reviewed by a care coordinator before it's awarded — which is exactly why they mean something.
Stage 1
Foundation
Where she starts — belief, coping tools, and money habits.
Self-Worth Star
Where every journey starts.
Confidence is the foundation everything else is built on. Before a young woman can budget, lead, or set a five-year goal, she has to believe she is worth the effort. This badge slows down and builds that belief on purpose.

Money habits before money problems.
Most young people are handed adult financial decisions with no practice. Our Financial Literacy pillar gives her the vocabulary, the habits, and a real savings win before the stakes are high.

Tools for the hard days.
Every young woman will have overwhelming days. This badge makes sure she already has coping tools in her pocket before she needs them — a natural fit for families receiving behavioral health support.

Growth
Where it gets real — goals, home, service, and consistency.
Goal Getter
A plan she can actually see.
Goals stop being wishes the moment they get written down, dated, and shown to someone who cares. This badge turns "someday" into a plan with a target date and an audience.
See what she doesHome Harmony
Change that shows up at home.
Growth that never reaches the kitchen table isn't growth yet. Our Happy Homes pillar coaches respect, routine, and communication so families feel the difference between sessions.

Service that sticks.
Serving other people is the fastest cure for feeling small. Two real service experiences shift how she sees her own capacity to help.
See what she doesKnowledge Keeper
Showing up, all the way through.
Consistency is the quiet superpower. This badge rewards the young woman who attends every session in a cycle and can prove what she learned.
See what she doesSisterhood Spirit
Chosen by the people beside her.
The one badge her peers help confirm. It recognizes the member who encourages others, works through disagreements, and makes the room feel safer.

Leadership
Where she leads — mentoring, advocacy, and the Pioneer sash.
Leadership Legacy
From member to mentor.
Leadership is a skill, not a personality. Here she prepares, stands in front of people, and then honestly reviews what she'd do differently — the same loop real leaders run.
See what she doesChange Maker
Her voice, used on purpose.
She learns that an issue she cares about plus a plan equals impact — in her school, her block, or her city.
See what she doesPicture Me Perfect Pioneer
The highest honor we give.
The capstone. Eight or more badges — or outstanding overall commitment — means she has done the work across confidence, money, goals, home, service, and leadership.
