The national report on the State of Self Esteem reported that 7 in 10 girls believe they do not measure up in areas such as school performance, attractiveness and relationship success. It also noted that 75 percent of girls with low self-esteem reported engaging in risky behaviors, such as disordered eating, cutting, bullying, smoking or drinking.
 
On Saturday, February 21st, the Robert Crown Center for Health Education (RCC) presents “Happy to Be Me!” a luncheon celebration for girls and the important women in their lives.   The event provides powerful tools to help girls develop self-esteem, led by Professional Health Educator, Barb Barrett, RN, BSN, who combines humor with thought-provoking challenges.  She inspires her female audiences to believe in themselves, develop character and live a balanced life.  This fun and energizing event includes the luncheon presentation, boutique shopping and raffles.
