Girls' LEAP (Lifetime Empowerment & Awareness Program) trains at-risk girls aged 8-18 in verbal and physical safety skills and self-awareness. LEAP helps girls develop a diverse set of responses to violence, beyond the extremes of passivity and escalation.
LEAP's physical skills techniques maximize girls' options and help girls
to make safe decisions in spite of fear. The self-reflective skills strengthen
girls' ability to say "no" in difficult situations, to create
safe and constructive boundaries, and to identify and trust their own
feelings.
