Girls are exploring on their own, and looking more to their peers for standards in boundaries and relationships. They are out more, with their friends or by themselves. They may be riding a bus solo, or walking to school.  They may have part-time or summer jobs.  They are not far from dating.  They may have already experienced #MeToo incidents.You may be concerned about peer pressure and a cultural environment that romanticizes unhealthy relationship behavior and tends to denigrate girls’ and women’s abilities and sense of self.

They could use some skills to help augment the experience they are beginning to acquire. 

In this class, your emerging teen will learn to recognize “red flags” that someone may mean harm, plan safe exits from iffy situation, practice physical moves (just in case), and learn to find supportive self-care. All in age-appropriate language and concepts.

All participants need to be fully vaccinated for COVID-19. Masks may still be required.

This class is for all cis and trans girls, as well as non-binary people who are comfortable in a space that centers the experiences of girls.
