OUR SIGNATURE INITIATIVE

Every woman and girl deserves positive self-esteem

A movement dedicated to strengthening the emotional well-being of women and girls while recognizing the important role fathers play in healthy identity development.

THE INITIATIVE

Strengthening women and girls. Engaging fathers. Strengthening families.

Women and Girls Plus Fathers is an NBHI initiative dedicated to promoting positive self-esteem, healthy identity development, emotional wellness, and resilient family relationships through education, research, advocacy, and community engagement.

The initiative recognizes that women and girls benefit from environments that affirm their value, support their emotional well-being, and encourage healthy identity development.

It also recognizes the meaningful role fathers can play in children’s lives and in the development of healthy relationships, confidence, connection, and family well-being.

WHY IT MATTERS

Positive identity begins with connection, support, and belonging.

Women and girls navigate experiences that can shape how they see themselves, their relationships, and their future. Supportive relationships and healthy environments can help create stronger foundations for emotional wellness and resilience.
