About this service
Rites for Girls CIC mission is to change the world one girl at a time, by making the lives of girls safer, kinder and better supported.
Roots and Wings - nurturing the mother-daughter bond to last a lifetime - provides mothers the opportunity to reflect on their relationship to their mother, themselves, and use this to bring their best self to mothering their daughters. The three-day process can be therapeutic but not therapy, providing nourishment and growth, in service of the coming generations.
Rites for Girls trains women to facilitate Girls Journeying Together and Girls’ Net groups, supporting the girls and their mothers. Facilitators become ‘the woman they needed at 11’ and are provided with meaningful work that fits around other commitments, enabling them to serve in a diverse range of cultures bringing back the power of community in a way that appeals to today’s girls.
Girls Journeying Together groups offer a year of in-person monthly support for small groups of preteen girls as they practice being true to themselves, learn about puberty, share their hopes and fears, and help each other into their teens. We support girls to emerge from adolescence stronger than they went in, working to prevent the high rates of self-harm and low esteem.
Girls’ Net provides immediate guidance and camaraderie online over 6 weeks to help small groups of same-age girls (aged 8-18) manage increased anxiety, family issues, divorce, bereavement, siblings, bullying, exams, social media and body image. Our mentors offer tools for coping well and the girls access their inner resources while also realising that they’re not alone.
Parenting Through Difficult Times, a 3-session weekly online series helping small groups of parents do their best parenting in times of difficulty.
