MonaLesa Brackett, Ms. New Hampshire 2025, Visits Girl Scouts at the CAAT Center

The Chester Cultural Arts and Technology Center was honored to welcome MonaLesa Brackett, Ms. New Hampshire 2025, for a special visit with our Girl Scouts. The evening was filled with joy, encouragement, and powerful lessons about confidence, self-esteem, and believing in yourself.

During her visit, MonaLesa shared her personal journey through pageant life, speaking openly about the discipline, courage, preparation, and self-confidence it takes to step onto a stage and represent something greater than yourself. She encouraged the girls to understand that beauty is not just about appearance, but about how you carry yourself, how you treat others, and how strongly you believe in who you are.

The Girl Scouts had the opportunity to ask questions, take photos, and participate in a confidence-building activity where they practiced walking with purpose, posture, and pride. Through this experience, the girls learned that confidence is something they can build, practice, and carry with them in every room they enter.

This visit was more than a fun photo opportunity. It was a reminder that young girls need positive role models who show them what leadership, grace, and self-respect look like in action. At CAAT, we are committed to creating spaces where youth feel seen, celebrated, and empowered to shine.

We are grateful to MonaLesa Brackett for pouring into our girls and reminding them that they are already worthy, capable, and full of purpose. Moments like this help plant seeds of confidence that can grow for a lifetime.
