Support the network and grow in the 4GIRLS network

An innovative program for establishing emotional resilience by training girls to provide empowering 'girl-to-girl' support for minor distress issues that openly arise on a protected social network for girls.

The program aims to: strengthen the emotional resilience of girls who have experienced distress-inducing events, identify girls in at-risk and emergency situations and connect them to treatment sources in a timely manner, reduce health and education resources by early detection and early response to minor distress issues, and enrich community knowledge by creating a dynamic insights document of the authentic voices of the girls and workshops for treatment and education staff and the girls' parents.

The program has both a frontal component (two-hour meetings) and a digital component (responding to links in the network for healthy growth for girls), group and individual support by a psychologist, continuous connection with authorities, schools, and youth coordinators, and a central motif of accumulated knowledge.

The program includes quantitative and qualitative measurement forms and quantitative milestones for measuring success.

A pilot for the program was conducted in the cities of Tel Aviv, Bat Yam, and Rosh HaAyin, some of which included girls from evacuated families.
