Empowering event: Kamloops Y gives girls power
KAMLOOPS — It’s a full-day conference for teen and pre-teen girls focusing on everything from self-esteem, healthy relationships, dating, discrimination, body image and bullying.
The Power of Being a Girl program was held in Kamloops today. Run through the YM/YWCA the violence-prevention conference is aimed at changing the often negative image that girls have of themselves.
It also helps them feel valued, and encourages them view themselves for who they really are.
