Training
Completed the training to facilitate girls circle counseling groups. Girls Circle promotes resiliency and healthy relationships in pre-teen and adolescent girls and young women. Our purpose is to encourage the development of strength, courage, confidence, honesty, and communication skills for all girls. Their goal is to create safe, culturally competent and trauma-informed environments to honor girls' development and to enhance girls' abilities so they are able to take full advantage of their talents, academic interests, career pursuits, and potential for healthy relationships. Girls Circles are uniquely positioned to address and challenge cultural messages that limit and distort girls' self-image, and provide a female-responsive rites of passage process to support identity development. We have found that girls' self-expression within a safe caring environment encourages self-confidence, authenticity in relationships, and enhanced judgment skills.
