“Help A Girl Out provides an essential service for our middle schoolers. Their workshop strikes the perfect chord, turning a topic that can often be awkward or intimidating into a positive, empowering, and fun experience. The program is exceptionally well-run; you can tell a lot of thought went into making the information accessible and age-appropriate. My experience with them has been outstanding, and I believe every girl would benefit from this workshop.”
