TRANSFORMING PEER AGGRESSION IN GIRLS: Vermont Works for Women has designed an interactive, half-day workshop that teaches educators, administrators, youth service providers, coaches - all adults - how to identify, address and prevent peer aggression in girls. We do not support the idea that this unhealthy, negative behavior among girls is a normal rite of passage. This workshop will help you:
· understand the dynamics of peer aggression
· learn & understand new strategies to implement
· hear examples & case studies first-hand from young women
· name & claim your own anxieties around dealing with peer aggression
· discover news ways to create safe, girl-centered environments like VWW's Rosie's Girls & Dirt Divas programs
