TOGETHER, LET'S BE CULTURE MAKERS
An introduction to the day
Fathers have a special and important role to play as their daughters change from little girls entering puberty to menstruating young women. Are you ready? Are you overwhelmed? Or are you sailing through? In our Fathers Celebrating Daughters workshops, you can expect a lively and enlightening discussion with many great tips and ideas for fathers wishing to open and maintain connection & conversations with their daughters as they navigate their adolescent years.
My father prepared me for my first period and I am forever grateful. Fathers, your voice & presence is important, join me to learn what is your role and how best to support your daughter as she is about to start living with a menstrual cycle (her Menarcheal years). You will receive all the knowledge necessary to support your daughter managing her first and subsequent periods.
