Courage for Youth, Kelowna, BC - Creating a culture where young people are safe from bullying, suicide, depression, eating disorders, poor self self-esteem, loneliness & toxic media influence

Role models for today's teens are not powerful women who have succeeded because of their persistence and kindness to others, but rather superstar singers acting like sexy schoolgirls and movie stars firing machine guns or using martial arts on opponents while wearing skintight jumpsuits. ... It is our role as adults to guide young women to form more positive self-identities, which will in turn lead to more supportive relationships with others."
