Flourish Girl is a preventative mental health and emotional intelligence charity that delivers rites of passage programs for teenage girls and gender diverse teens between 13-18 to flourish in schools.
Backed up by ongoing school-based and online support, Flourish Girl helps girls to build their self-awareness, self-confidence and social connectedness within their school community and other trusted relationships, and to flourish into confident, authentic young women.
“By investing in our next generation of young people, we can allow space for young people to see their authentic selves, to connect to their greater purpose and to use their gifts, strengths & talents to serve their communities.”
Mandy Dante, Founder / CEO
