Learn About the Girls Only SHED |
The Girls Only SHED toolkit is intended as a contribution to efforts to empower and educate young girls through prevention education. The activities in Girls Only programming are hands-on, engaging, and relevant to participants’ own life experiences. Research shows that girls who are engaged in positive activities such as school, sports, or prevention/intervention programs are more likely to complete high school, attend university, positively serve their communities, and reach their potential for future success than their peers who are not involved. Girls Only uses effective approaches to prevention, including: consistent mentorship, positive role models, supportive peer groups, interactive teaching methods, gender specific programming, and experiential education.
