Girl Talk Class is Back

February 28, 2020
By:

Years of research tell us that even when we think teens aren’t listening to us, that they really are. Parents are their child’s first teacher and have the greatest influence on their physical and emotional development. But, how do you grow a meaningful relationship with your daughter? Join us to learn how in the Girl Talk program – a 3 part series.

March 5th will be in the auditorium at the DeKalb County Complex. March 12 and 19 will be in the UT Room of the DeKalb County Complex. Classes are from 6 – 7:30 pm with a light meal provided each night free.

During this multi-week program, girls ages 9 – 14, will join their mother, or other trusted female adult, to learn about their changing bodies, puberty, behaviors, and beliefs. Fun and engaging activities will help grow relationships, setting a strong foundation for healthy and trusted communication so that teen girls will grow into women who are able to have healthy relationships.

Girl Talk classes are sponsored by UT/TSU DeKalb County Extension in cooperation with the DeKalb County Health Department and the DeKalb County Coordinator of School Health. Instructors include UT Extension Agent Dr. April Martin, Coordinator of School Health Elise Driver, Nurse Practitioner Dr. Gianna Owens, and Health Educator Megan Kinslow. Mothers and teens need to attend all sessions together. The class is limited to 12 adult/ youth pairs and pre-registration is required. Please call 615-597-4945 or email amartin3@utk.edu with names, ages, email address, and phone number to pre-register.
