Overview

Her Power! works directly with girls with disabilities through a unique, four-day overnight event designed to promote critical thinking about society’s messages, eliminate shame, develop leadership skills, and encourage self-acceptance. This event is built on the best practices of the disability justice community and emerging research in female development. It goes beyond self-esteem programming to provide a venue for real self-empowerment.

Our Work Is Rooted in Disability Pride

We promote these radical notions:

• People with disabilities are not broken.
• There is no reason to feel shame associated with disability.
• All people should be able to embrace their unique differences and accept all aspects of who they are as individuals.
• The work to end gender violence includes working to end systems of oppression — including racism, classism, sizeism, ableism, sexism, heterosexism, and more.

Her Power! has positively impacted over two hundred disabled girls’ lives in Michigan since it began. We are now working to expand our reach to include girls from across the country.
