celebration
Celebration is a core part of the TGP model, allowing us to recognize the amazing work, scholarship, and participation of girls, college students, and our facilitation team. Scroll to celebrate with us!
girl participants have:
-
Started their own feminist clubs
-
Been elected to positions in student government
-
Led activism at their schools and in their communities
-
Created Girls' Groups in their schools and after-school programs
-
Continued to make their voices heard by creating their own media and art
-
Lifted their voices in their families, schools, and communities
At the end of each nine-week Girls Group session, TGP hosts a celebration at Lesley University to honor the participants who speak, perform, and share art and critical work with their community. This event allows families, teachers, scholars, administrators and friends to share in the TGP experience.
In addition to celebrating the girls in front of their friends, family, and teachers, TGP's celebration also recognizes the hard work of our Emerging Girlhood Scholars after having facilitated eight weeks of Girls' Groups. We applaud their effort, care, and scholarship.
