ANNIE'S Vision

Disclaimer: Although Annie's Project groups are formulated for women in mind, participation of men is allowed and not discriminated against.

Disclaimer: Participation in Annie’s Project is not required for participation in the NM-FARM benchmarking program, and participating in Annie’s Project does not imply any obligation to participate in the benchmarking program.

Class Structure

Annie’s Project courses are typically localized and conducted in small groups. However, they can also be conducted online or in a hybrid approach. Women are provided a safe harbor to learn in a stress free, open environment.

Members are encouraged to contribute their life experiences to facilitate learning from each other.

Course facilitators (who organize and guide the event) provide guest speakers and the leadership needed for the educational process to blossom. Pre- and post evaluations indicate that beyond learning, these experiences result in changed behaviors and greater confidence.
