Due to COVID – 19 and the uncertainty of when we will be able to meet again, Young Women of Power has decided that we will not have an in person gathering in Calgary at FFCA High School. INSTEAD we are HOSTING THIS YEAR’S CONFERENCE ONLINE! That’s right it will be a live stream through Zoom. We believe in the importance of social connection which is needed now more than ever. That is why we are working hard to keep this incredible event available for girls despite this virus. So start spreading this good news (instead of the virus) and register today. YWOP is keeping their online doors open! The conference will be one day only Saturday, June 6, 2020.

The Annual Young Women of Power Conference is taking place all day Saturday, June 6, 2020 for the first time ONLINE. Girls will be able to watch and participate from home on a computer, tablet or smart phone. This conference is ideal for girls ages 12 to 18ish designed to increase their confidence through active group sessions on personal safety, inner beauty, and celebrating female diversity and greatness. Girls will learn that they are more than enough and be inspired to transform girl culture.

Female caregivers, educators and mentors are welcome to join in online.

The speakers know how to speak to youth. They are informative, yet entertaining, teaching girls how to live smart, sharing tools that will help them to be more confident in their own skin. The workshops are interactive and designed to reveal each girl’s unique beauty, helping them celebrate who they are and empower them with practical wisdom to be safe.
