Girls Program Information 2023-2024

Welcome to the Women’s Centre’s Girls Programs. The programs are free of charge. The programs are open to girls, trans, Two-Spirit and non-binary children and youth.

The goal of the Women’s Centre’s Girls Programs (the “Programs”) is to provide opportunities for girl-identifying and gender diverse children and youth (the “Participants”) to connect with each other to build community, learn about social action, practice leadership, and uncover their strengths and skills. We facilitate various activities that include music, crafts, discussions, and most importantly, youth-led sessions where youth practice their leadership skills. Participants tell us that our programs are fun and that they help them feel more confident and connected. Discussions and activities center on topics that youth are interested in from a gender-specific lens. As such, while human sexuality is not an identified topic in the program, if Participants raise questions, they will be addressed in an age-appropriate way.

 Location

The sessions will take place at the Women’s Centre of Calgary (#39- 4th Street NE, T2E 3R6).  On occasion, we may go offsite to nearby locations such as the local park, but we will strive to provide advanced notice.  

We provide meals, snacks, and supplies. We will also provide bus tickets as needed for participants to attend the program.

Should you have any questions, please contact Era Rana or Hope Sawtell at 403-264-1155 or youth@womenscentrecalgary.org.
