GLOW is a program designed to teach girls the skills they need to become leaders in their schools, communities, and beyond. With our facilitator guides, you can easily implement the program in your school and watch your students flourish.
Our facilitator guides provide everything you need to run the program smoothly and effectively. They include lesson plans, activities, and discussion prompts that are specifically tailored to the needs of young girls. With our guides, you can feel confident that you're providing your students with the support and guidance they need to become the leaders of tomorrow.
The GLOW program is based on the idea that every girl has the potential to be a leader, regardless of her background or experiences. Through our program, girls will learn important skills like communication, problem-solving, and decision-making, as well as the confidence they need to put those skills into practice.
By participating in GLOW, girls will develop a sense of empowerment and a belief in their own abilities. They'll learn to identify their strengths and weaknesses, and to use those insights to become better leaders. And most importantly, they'll learn to support and encourage each other, building a community of strong, confident young women.
*When the word “girl” is used in GLOW, such as in our name, we refer to everyone who identifies as female. Our goal is to use gender-inclusive language; however, there are times when the word “girl” is used, such as when referring to research specific to females or when quoting someone.
