What is Cycle Prep?
This 90-minute parent-daughter workshop introduces girls to menstrual cycles, periods, and the language of their bodies in a positive, adult-supported environment. Cycle Prep encourages girls to respect their bodies and equips them to navigate the natural changes which come with menstrual cycles.

  • All about Periods – what is it like to have a period? Covers personal care and hygiene around menstruation, and criteria to help girls determine if their cycles fall into a healthy range of presentation or if they should seek help from a trusted adult.
  • Creating a Culture of Care – Focus on personal care throughout the cycle, how to put together a period kit, and our role in creating a positive culture of girls – supporting – girls around menstruation.
  • Plus: additional print resources for girls and parents to help you feel confident and keep the conversations going!
