For Girls: If you'd like to learn more about "Dartmouth Girl Power," talk it over with your parent(s) and then contact us for more information. It's important to remember that this group is for girls who live in Dartmouth and who are in grades six through eight! Each week we will explore a theme (a subject or idea) that is important to girls. All discussions will be kept confidential (private), our activities will be fun, and of course, munchies will be provided as well!

For Parents: This new support group began in the fall of 2003 and is now in its third year. Ideally, we envision a group consisting of four girls from grades six through eight, for a total of twelve awesome girls! Group members are selected from a list generated by referral from colleagues, parents and of course from girls themselves who express interest in our program.

Girls who are struggling with self esteem issues, relationship challenges and other life struggles would be ideal candidates for becoming part of our group. Enrollment will close once each 10 week session begins. Those on a wait-list will be registered first for the next ten week session. Please contact me if you have any questions. Thanks for your interest in "Dartmouth Girl Power!."
