About the Program

As we approach the end of the year, we'll take a moment to reflect on the beauty standards that stood out in 2024, as well as those from the past. We'll explore why these ideals might not be realistic or healthy. The central theme of our program is that beauty is subjective—a key message for tweens to understand. Additionally, we'll highlight the importance of self-care, and participants will have the opportunity to create their own lip scrubs to take home.
