Available for the 2018-19 School Year

We have recently completed the first ever EQ it UP! After School Workshop™ and it was amazing! We literally watched their Emotional Intelligence (EQ) increase and their confidence build!

EQ it UP! just completed its first ever facilitator training, which means we now have EIGHT more awesome individuals to teach these workshops throughout San Diego, Long Beach, Yucca Valley, and the Washington Peninsula area!
(p.s. We are also in the process of creating a workshop for boys)!

Our purpose:
To proactively plant the seeds of self-confidence and self-care for young girls by supporting them with social and emotional wellness, and increasing Emotional Intelligence (EQ), specifically in areas that girls are typically challenged.

What is it?
This is an 8-week after-school program supporting young girls with uplifting themselves and others through self, social, and emotional wellness. Utilizing the EQ it UP!™ Curriculum, the intention is to support them with increasing their emotional intelligence through Education, Practice, Reinforcement, and Engagement, within themselves and among their peers...truly creating a Girl Uplifters Team™.
