K.I.N.D. Girls Mentoring Program, Inc.

In wanting to protect and guide girls toward a fulfilling life, we discovered that the challenges in our sexualized culture were many and in some ways were multiplying. It was important to search for solid, research-based information to help girls safely navigate today’s sexual culture thus K.I.N.D. Girls was started. It takes a lot of patience, skill and understanding to communicate with an adolescent. We want girls to be grounded and to discover "who she is", her worth and value and not who pop culture tells her she should be. If a girl grows up without sound guidance, she is vulnerable to making poor decisions and setting unworthy goals.

Other Goals:

• To provide true information to help girls avoid unplanned pregnancies, binge drinking, promiscuity, wasting their time, being led astray by peers and so on.

• Help students create a High School & Beyond Plan - create SMART goals - 3 developmental goals to work on during the relationship using the SMART goal framework
