The Healthy Girls Initiative of Girl Scouts of Gulfcoast Florida, Inc. was approved to deliver our holistic health programs for girls within the school day in Sarasota County elementary schools back in February 2009. Since then, we have been developing and refining the curriculum through delivering the Uniquely Me! Healthy Girls Program in after-school programs throughout the region.
This past May, HGI Program Specialist Julia Onnie-Hay met with guidance counselors from elementary schools in Venice, North Port, Laurel and Englewood regarding setting up the logistics for offering the program to 3rd, 4th and 5th grade girls in their schools. We are pleased to announce that starting with the new school term at the end of August, the Uniquely Me! Healthy Girls Program will be offered at Garden Elementary School in Venice, Glen Allen Elementary School in North Port, and Englewood Elementary School in Englewood. We are still available to offer the program in two other elementary schools in the region, so if you would like to see us in your school next term, please contact HGI Program Specialist Julia Onnie-Hay at (941) 921-5358 ext. 319 or juliao@gsgcf.org to find out how you can help make our cutting edge healthy living curriculum available to girls in your community!
