Every Girl is a new program being developed for delivery by YWCAs across Australia.

Every Girl is a program for girls ages 9-14 years to achieve positive change, enable the development of strong self esteem, to grow in confidence, and to decrease bullying and stereotypes. Using a strengths based approach and a human rights framework, this cutting edge program guides girls to create new areas of resilience, and to help them find their voice through civic and community engagement.

Through a series of eight 90-minute workshops, girls will explore community connectedness, human rights, personal voice, and respectful relationships. The journey will culminate in a participant-directed community event that highlights the skills and learnings acquired over eight weeks.

Every Girl will ultimately be delivered to schools in disadvantaged communities across Australia. It will be available for delivery from 2012.
