Going On 13 GOING ON 13 is a new documentary film that presents an alternate and perhaps more realistic view of girls and their families in our urban communities. Developed and created by social workers, we encourage you to consider screening the film in all of the ways that you can. Doing so will ignite a dialogue and support all our efforts to 1) Create a space for girls to share their experiences of puberty - as experts on their own lives; 2) Engage girls and those who care about them in an inter-generational dialog; and 3) Inspire communities to develop programs, policies and spaces that listen to the real needs of real girls. We want you to USE the film - in your classrooms and school districts, in your universities, in your home, and in your after-school programs - with girls, your students, your staff, your local politicians and your friends and
family. Learn more about this wonderful new video here >>> Preview trailer below...
January is National Mentoring Month National Mentoring Month aims to raise awareness of mentoring in its various forms; recruit individuals to mentor, especially in programs that have a waiting list of young people; and promote the rapid growth of mentoring by recruiting organizations--businesses, faith communities, schools and community groups--to encourage their constituents to become mentors to young people. The Connecticut Mentoring Partnership, a program of the Governor's Prevention Partnership, is leading a statewide effort to recruit more mentors. |
