Our Story of Growing Resiliency Through Understanding Gender Paradigms

 

The Love the Skin You’re In Youth Resiliency Project is a nonprofit mental health and gender project that inspires youth to think critically about the ways in which social and popular media present paradigms of masculinity and femininity via bodies, race, sexuality, narratives. We empower youth with current research on social media’s impact on gender stereotypes and lead youth on a dynamic audio-visual journey from dominance-based masculinity and sexualization-based femininity to to self-compassion, empathy, and unity.
