The True to Me program helps kids and teens build their self-esteem by incorporating body image, or the way we think and feel about how we look and what our bodies can do, into their overall sense of self-worth. It focuses on creating a balanced and diverse self-concept that doesn’t give disproportionate significance to physical appearance.
The program builds on the following body confidence tenets:
- Acceptance of your body
- Respecting and taking good care of your body
- Seeing your body as a positive influence on your life
- Valuing diverse beauty ideals
