GIRL TALK CREATES CONFIDENT LEADERS

Zada Pic

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.
