For Girls 10-13
What is girl power?
Girl Power is an educational, skill-building and creative group designed to introduce girls ages 10-13 to concepts and skills that promote a positive self-image. Girl Power assists girls to challenge social rules and media messages that diminish a girl’s sense of self as they move toward adolescence.
The group activities raise self-esteem, self-worth and increase abilities to cope with the upcoming teen challenges. Through a connection to inner resources girls will explore ways to claim a healthy connection to themselves, peers, and the community.
Girl power was originally designed by Sherry Bezanson of Ladysmith, B.C. who has a Bachelor of Social Work, and a Masters in Counselling Psychology and is a Registered Rehabilitation Professional and a Registered Clinical Counsellor. She started Girl Power in 1997 as a pre-adolescent prevention group for girls.
