For the past nine years The Girls Project has conducted girl-centered empowerment programs and has developed curriculum materials for elementary, middle, and high school girls,* with a focus on themes such as stereotypes, media, puberty/sexuality, relationships, women’s history, activism, health, and body and soul (to name a few).
*Note: The materials for the high school level are specifically focused on
immigrant teens.
