Girlz Choice is an eight-week program supporting secondary school girls. Girls participate on a voluntary basis and may be recommended to the program by the school guidance or student success teams. Participants identify their challenges which most often include drugs and alcohol, sex, relationships, abuse, conflict with parents, suicide, cutting and eating disorders. Together with the facilitator they explore personal goals, choices, alternative paths and opportunities.
