Get Your Girl Power 2023 conducted workshops for 55 fifth graders in 2 schools in May. Women’s Resource Center was able to achieve its goal to help girls in Ignacio and Bayfield feel more empowered to solve problems identified by the counselors such as online safety, healthy eating, and stronger relationships. GYGP facilitators contributed over $6,000 worth of volunteer time to La Plata County!
