Why Re-enrolling Your Daughter In ZGiRLS Is A Smart Idea
As your daughter grows and evolves, so too do the challenges in her journey to adulthood. The ZGiRLS Confidence Program is designed to grow alongside them, providing 11-14-year-olds with emotional tools and strategies that resonate with their ever-changing needs.
So why stop after one program?! More time spent with the ZGiRLS Curriculum™ means more community, support, and virtual high-fives as your daughter grows and learns. Think of it as personal training for her emotional wellbeing.
Our “trainers” are ready to refresh her approach to developing a growth mindset, building self-worth, taking on challenges and learning from failure, and advocating for herself.
Here are the four top reasons why re-enrolling your daughter is beneficial to her continued development and success:
Help her adapt to new challenges
As kids grow up, their social lives get more and more complicated. What used to be simple friendships now might involve more complex relationships and a deeper sense of self-awareness. These changes can bring new challenges, and your daughter will need new perspectives to handle them.
Is she starting at a new school next year or experiencing other difficult changes outside of her control?
We’re here to help her navigate through it all, with her self-worth and courageousness intact. The skills and lessons she learned through ZGiRLS were not only relevant in the moment—they are lifelong assets that will benefit her well into adulthood.
By participating in multiple programs, your daughter will continue to develop the confidence, resilience, and self-worth she needs to thrive in any situation.

More support for YOU
Continuing with ZGiRLS ensures that you remain a well-equipped partner in your daughter's developmental journey. Our resources are designed to support you in reinforcing the lessons she’s learned and to give you an opportunity for your own self-reflection.
Please note: Even if your family previously received a scholarship, we strongly encourage you to apply again. To-date, thanks to donor support, we have never had to turn down a program scholarship request from a family in need.
“ZGiRLS really helped my daughter feel heard and supported by a group of peers, as well as understood by positive role models who have overcome many of the obstacles tweens face every day.”
Let’s keep the momentum going!
When did you first notice your daughter incorporating lessons from ZGiRLS? Was it in real-time during the program, or perhaps months later, when you happened to notice her different response to difficult situations?
One dad told us that when his daughter casually mentioned “having a growth mindset” in the middle of a conversation about one of her friends, he knew that ZGiRLS had sunken in.
A key benefit to participating in multiple ZGiRLS Confidence Programs is the opportunity for your daughter to reinforce the skills she’s already learned. She’ll get to practice and deepen her understanding of essential life skills, like resilience and self-worth.
In short, personal growth thrives on consistency. Like muscles that become stronger with regular exercise, her emotional skills grow and become more ingrained through practice!
Even more inspiring female role models
Every session of the ZGiRLS Confidence Program introduces a different combination of mentors—Olympians or professional athletes—who bring a wealth of experience and insights.
We’re so grateful to have been joined by dozens of incredible women over the years including:
Tyra Gittens: Olympian (track and field)
Sophia Foresta: BMX World Champion
Natalie Allport: Snowboarding and CrossFit athlete
Alice Merryweather: Olympian and World Cup teammate (alpine ski)
Meagan Martin (pictured): Professional rock climber and American Ninja Warrior
This exposure provides fresh inspiration and practical advice, allowing your daughter to see the many ways in which diverse women navigate challenges and achieve their dreams. More importantly, their stories prove to your daughter that she isn’t alone in her struggles.
In conclusion, re-enrolling your 11-14 year-old in the ZGiRLS Confidence Program is more than just continuing education; it’s an ongoing investment in her future. Each session is a step forward in her journey toward becoming a more confident, resilient young woman.
If you’re ready to see her shine even brighter, let’s keep this empowering journey going. Join us again to nurture and witness the remarkable growth of your incredible daughter.
You’re doing great. ZGiRLS is here for your family.
