MANY GIRLS STRUGGLE TO SEE THEIR LEADERSHIP POTENTIAL
GIRL TALK IS PART OF THE SOLUTION
The Girl Talk program helps girls recognize various styles, characteristics and approaches of leadership and then gives them the opportunity to put them into practice. At Girl Talk, we believe there are no limits to girls’ potential, and we strive to create an environment that inspires, motivates and cultivates confidence and other leadership qualities.
OUR APPROACH WORKS
When surveyed after just one week in our 2018 Summer Camp, our girls demonstrated the following impact:

Girls consider themselves leaders0%
Feel more confident about themselves
“Before Girl Talk, I let my introversion consume me because I had no idea a ‘quiet leader’ could exist. I relied heavily on my peers to be the first to speak up or to take action. Now, I know a quiet leader is exactly who I am, and through Girl Talk, I found a balance between using my voice and letting others use theirs. But the most fulfilling of all, I am discovering opportunities every day to encourage others to find their balance as well.”
- Hanna Meyers
