For five days in the fall, girls' program providers, as well as those who are building (or hoping to build) programs for girls, get together. Through creative and interactive workshops, there will be opportunities to talk about programming for girls, as well as to build your skills in a variety of areas. The training includes workshops about:
Starting and sustaining your program
Designing a program
Developing facilitation skills
Workshop development, activities, resources and ideas for programming
Explaining the need for girls’ programs
Deepen analysis of issues we are addressing (violence prevention, self-esteem, healthy sexuality, anti-oppression, etc)
It also provides opportunities for:
Networking and connecting with girls' programs leaders from across the country
Sharing success stories and action strategies for girls' programs
Discussing your current projects and providing a space for support
Relaxing, creating & celebrating!
