DISCOVER YOUR POWER:
A journal for girls everywhere
Hi there! We’re so glad you found this page.
We’re She’s the First, a nonprofit fighting for a world where every girl (that includes you!) is educated, respected, and heard. Every girl has power, but not every girl gets the chance to use it.
Do you feel held back by other people? By your circumstances? By the patriarchy, the systems that continuously benefit men and boys?
We’ve got your back.
This journal is for girls ages 13-17 (is that you?!) to find the power to speak up and advocate for yourself. In it, you'll explore how safety, support, and self-expression come together to form the basis of your power. You'll learn how to:
use your voice to stand up for yourself
surround yourself with a strong support system
set goals for your future powerful self.
Imagine what you could do with all that!
Dive In!
