Inspiring Upstand(HER)s
For younger audiences – middle school, high school and college aged women – AND those who work directly with girls and young women as teachers, counselors, mentors and managers.

My approach to Upstand(HER) behavior aims to first help girls recognize when someone is hurt by acknowledging the situation to the victim (I see you), demonstrating empathy (I get you), and using emotional intelligence to support (I feel you) and then learning to proactively speak out and stand up (I've got you!).
