The girls study eight building blocks of social-emotional health as identified by the Greater Good Science Center at the University of California, Berkley. The GOh GOh Girls program holistically aids in the development of young girls by providing a safe place to discuss female related issues while also equipping girls with experiences such as self-defense, budgeting, and the importance of the arts.
