JOIN US IN SUPPORTING GIRLS HEALTH & LEADERSHIP

The Girls’ Health in Girls’ Hands (GHGH) program provides girls age 11-18 with leadership opportunites to build resilience, compassion, and authenticity. Through GHGH, hundreds of girls across Monterey County gain access to comprehensive health information, develop strong leadership skills, and help create positive change in their schools and communities.

Empowered Leaders (4th-6th Grade): Our workshops are centered on discovery—helping participants learn who they are, how to stand up for themselves and their peers, what compassion means, and the value of working as part of a group. Additional sessions cover topics such as puberty, nutrition, and building self-confidence, equipping them to navigate these formative years.  

LeadHERS (7th-8th Grade): We support middle school girls in practicing compassion and self-care, and learning about their unique health needs. This stage focuses on developing strong interpersonal skills and deeper understanding of personal health.

GHGH Club (9th-12th Grade): Our workshops cover essential topics such as bullying, social media, peer pressure, healthy eating, self-care, self-esteem, and sexual health.

Girls’ Leadership Network (GLN): This girl-led council comprises 25 high school girls representing their schools and communities, The GLN fosters leadership and advocacy skills, preparing these young women to become the next generation of leaders.
