About Self Esteem Boston
Self Esteem Boston’s mission is to change people’s lives from the inside out by raising their self-esteem. And by raising their self-esteem, it is their goal that people will live more consciously, and become self-accepting, self-assertive, and live with purpose, responsibility, and integrity. They do this by delivering self-esteem educational programs in group-settings which 1) defines what self-esteem is, 2) educates people on why self-esteem matters, and teaches people how to build self-esteem through essential skill development, and 3) support toward making healthy life choices.
