About
GIRLS TODAY ARE FACING TOUGHER CHALLENGES THAN EVER BEFORE.
Anxiety, depression, and suicide rates of young girls are on the rise, and there is a national call to address the mental health crisis that is exacerbated by the state of accelerated changes in our national culture. Suicide is the 2nd Leading Cause of Death in Kids and Teens Ages 10 to 19 in the US
Suicide Attempt Among Girls Ages 12 to 17 went up 50.6% between February 21 and March 20 of 2021
It’s time to stop and pay attention to what teen girls need to say
The Girls State of the Union is an open online forum that will address the challenges girls are facing head on, prioritizing the topics that young women care about the most. What is unique about our approach is that rather than having adults define the agenda, we directly have girls tell us what they care about. Through collaborative conversations and voting, the first forum will solidify the most pressing issues facing teen girls based on what they say matters most.
The event will result in the conference attendees ratifying the top challenges girls wish to collectively address. In future State Of The Union events we will continue to define specific goals and develop proactive solutions, working in partnership with with other national girls organizations.Other creators -
