Little Stars Program

Body Republic is so excited about the development of our Little Stars Program offered to girls age 8-12. We all know children are our greatest resource and what could be more important than protecting the self-esteem and body image of our daughters? Body Republic’s unique approach to teaching girls body positive principles reaches beyond merely building her self-esteem. We provide girls with a backpack full of skills that will enable her to employ body positive principles with herself, family and friends as she grows. Simply put, our Little Stars Program imparts five body positive strategies. Developing curiosity about herself and the world around her, reaching out to others when help is needed, knowing she’s empowered to make change, utilizing mechanisms for self-care, and sharing her experiences form the foundation of our Little Stars Workshop. We need your support to bring our Little Stars Program to girls worldwide. Join us! Be an agent of change in the lives of growing girls. Here’s how you can help -
