GIRL TALK CREATES CONFIDENT LEADERS

Girl Talk girl holding a peace sign | Girls Mentoring Program | Girl Empowerment Programs | Girl Talk

We inspire middle and high school girls to be confident leaders through peer-to-peer mentoring. High school girls gain practical experience using leadership skills to plan and run weekly meetings for middle school girls. As they build a supportive network, middle school girls learn valuable skills in a safe environment with peers who understand the difficulties and challenges they face.

Our girls' mentoring program is dynamic. Middle school girls often evolve into high school leaders, and high school leaders emerge as active alumna who pour back into the Girl Talk Community -- and the cycle of leadership and support continues.
