What we do
Coach in your corner program
Gurls Talk, Women Win, and Nike collaborated to bring the Coach in Your Corner program to life to challenge the stigma that exists around mental health and wellbeing, while empowering coaches to take a leading role in caring for their community.
Goals
- Through monthly online engagements, learning exchanges, and digital storytelling workshops, we seek to create a community of practice around sport and mental health.
- These sessions will focus on the predetermined topics selected during the kickoff. They will include a psychoeducation component, up-to-date research, an open space of dialogue to share experiences on the topic, and resources available.
- The program will equip sport coaches with the knowledge and skills to lead conversations on mental health with adolescent girls, help girls navigate their mental health journeys, and direct them to the care they need.
