Outline
i am my own BFF
Celebrate your strengths and feel great about your unique self.
i think my body’s a beauty
Bodies in the media are make-believe. We’ll help you see how all of us are gorgeous in our own way.
i know the facts of life
Learn the real deal about puberty and brush up on your body science.
i get the ‘net
Instagram, selfies and safety online ... we’ve got you covered.
i have healthy relationships
Friends, family, and [sigh] dating someday — let’s make sure you know what you want and deserve.
i am the best i can be
Get the low-down on what you need to do to reach your personal best, both now and when you’re 90.
i expect respect
Deal with friendship challenges, bullying and peer pressure in a way that works using — you guessed it — “i“ statements.
*Non-binary and gender creative students are also welcome. Please consult with facilitator prior to workshop.
