Girls Self-Esteem Program Offers Information About Becoming Empowered And Self-Sufficient
Being pretty is one thing, but the girl who holds her head high and takes care of her own business, writes her own ticket. The lesson is being driven home to a group of local girls participating in the Girls Self-Esteem Program (G-SEP), an offering of the Fathers Resource Center’s youth programs. Since kicking off in April, G-SEP has been empowering girls to believe in themselves and that they’re worthy of success.
“By addressing issues ranging from peer pressure, to body image, G-SEP members learn to carry themselves with grace and dignity. Emphasis is placed on the importance of female self-respect and selfworth,” she continued.
Other G-SEP sessions include "What is self esteem” "Health and Fitness", “Defining Beauty,” “Coping with Peer Pressure” and “Kidnap Prevention.”
To learn more about G-SEP, call (916) 647-3223.
