Here are more empowering programs we offer for girls, women and their advocates:
RESPECT RALLY
1-day training with 4 follow-up teleseminars
As a follow-up to the half-day training you received, you might be interested in our Respect Rally Leader Training program.
Picture a gymnasium filled with hundreds of teen girls, sitting in circles, listening intently to each other, doing engaging group activities, sharing their deepest feelings and hopes for themselves, and working together to design a new world where all girls are respected and respect each other. Picture each girl walking away from the day empowered to boost self-respect, sisterhood and social change in her life (and our world). This is what happens when girls attend a day-long Respect Rally.
The Respect Rally Leader Training is a program for those who want to create an enriching, full-scale girl conference that addresses many of the tough universal issues girls struggle with everywhere. By hosting a Respect Rally, girl advocates can take much of the guesswork out of the girl-conference planning process and bring a powerful, proven program to their organization.
With this model, the Respect Rx team trains one or more members of your organization to facilitate a Respect Rally. Along with providing more freedom in scheduling, this model allows host organizations to adapt the Rally as they see fit and deliver the program annually. Another benefit is the option of delivering the Rally tools and exercises in several units rather than a day-long event. Completing our training allows for optimal customization and wider reach. You’ll gain invaluable coaching and facilitation skills along with CEUs!
If you're interested in partnering with Respect Rx to host a Respect Rally Training for your region at your facility, you will receive 2 complimentary training passes. Email Jen Jones.
