Girls in the Know's (GITK) Mission is to empower girls to embrace a strong sense of self with a vision that every girl will know - I AM ENOUGH! The adolescent years can be very challenging for preteen and teenage girls. Everything is changing, and so fast! Lack of information, or worse, misinformation about healthy body image, puberty, navigating social media, and unhealthy behaviors, can profoundly affect a young girl's self-confidence, self-esteem, and mental health. GITK provides preteen girls with fact-based, medically accurate information about physical, social, and emotional development and fosters open communication with trusted adults.
