What’s Really Cool

You know what’s really cool? Saturday’s “What’s Really Cool” conference at 1:30 p.m. at Finkelstein Library. The event, for girls grades 7-12, is hosted by the Mental Health Association of Rockland, the American Association of University Women, the county Youth Bureau and POW’R Against Tobacco.
I was lucky enough to attend a couple years ago, and watch the hard work and dedication of MHA staff and AAUW volunteers who really got the girls to talk about important, and tough, issues. Youth Council members did some skits. (Uh, I helped clean up, because that was really all I was qualified for…) Topics change every year, but it all comes down to teaching good decision making, confidence and self-trust, which is often in short supply among young women.
Look at today’s article to find out more.
