A PRIVATE GROUP WORKSHOP
Teaching girls how to be media-savvy and talk straight about their bodies
Who: Girls in grades 5-12 and their parents/ adult caregivers!
Cost: The cost of this 2 hour private workshop is $625 and includes an experienced team of IFGD staff who offers skills-based curriculum relevant to girls and their friendships today.
What: In this fun, educational workshop, young women will learn ways to be smart consumers of the messages they get from the media, friends, adults, and even themselves. They will learn how to talk back to negative messages and discover ways that their media awareness can make a positive difference in our culture. This workshop also looks at social media and the effect that this has on young women’s body image.
FOR PARENTS (this workshop is offered concurrently with BODY TALK for girls)
Additionally, this workshop includes a parent / adult caregiver component, as we find that it provides the parents with additional tools to help their daughters build on the skills that the girls learn in the workshop.
Parents, are you bombarded with alarming media messages about girls and body image, food & weight, and eating disorders? Do you find yourself concerned about the sexualization of girls in the media? Do you wonder how you can best help your daughter feel good about who she is? Confident in her body? Great at taking care of herself? This informative workshop will provide smart tips and strategies that you can put right to work.
