The Confidence Crisis: How to Build Girls' Self-Esteem

Course overview

The world is complicated for today's girls. It's a difficult place for them to develop a strong sense of confidence -- confidence in their bodies, their abilities, their opinions, their opportunities, and ultimately confidence in themselves. Learn the newest insights and practical intervention strategies from the country's largest, first-of-its-kind national survey with 10,678 5th-12th grade girls. From confidence, body image, sexting and social media to school, academics, career planning and leadership, the findings from The Girls' Index provide a roadmap for mental health professionals to recognize the challenges impacting girls. Participants will gain tools and strategies for creating stronger girls, safer schools and successful students.
