Welcome - September 2023!
Hello Changemakers! Happy September!
Given that we have had SO many new members to the community, we will do monthly posts from Girl Up HQ that go over community guidelines and provide a place for introductions.
Community Guidelines
As a reminder, Girl Up has a zero-tolerance policy for discrimination, bullying or harassment of any kind, including online, physical, emotional, or sexual harassment; hate speech; or rude behavior of any kind. All Girl Up programs are open and inclusive of any youth regardless of race, religion, ethnicity, political belief, socioeconomic status, sexuality, or physical ability. Respect, tolerance, and understanding of others’ backgrounds and beliefs must be exemplified at all times.
Girl Up reserves the right to ban participants from in-person or online engagement if they disobey the zero-tolerance policy. A participant who experiences or witnesses conduct that violates this policy should immediately inform a Girl Up staff member, consultant, or trained volunteer. Participants may choose to report content on the community platform or email [email protected] to report inappropriate content or abuse.
For more information, you can find the safety and security policy here.
Introductions
On a more fun note, please feel free to introduce yourselves in the comments!
We look forward to meeting everyone!
-Anna, Associate of Community & Impact at Girl Up HQ
