The Girl Scout/Dove Self-Esteem Program Guide for facilitators what is uniquely me? Created by Girl Scouts of the USA and Unilever to address the critical nationwide problem of low self-esteem among adolescent and pre-adolescent girls, the uniquely ME! program is designed to foster positive self- esteem among girls, ages 8 to 17, in the United States and Puerto Rico. The program was launched in 2002 with a goal of reaching thousands of girls of diverse backgrounds within the first three years. In 2005, The Dove Self- Esteem Fund, which supports initiatives that help educate and inspire girls to embrace a wider definition of beauty, began to work through the Unilever Foundation to sponsor uniquely ME! directly. The program aims to address the challenges girls face in their daily lives, in addition to helping girls build a strong sense of self, develop healthy relationships and take care of their bodies and minds. how does uniquely me! foster positive self-esteem? uniquely ME! consists of a curriculum that integrates the latest research from the Girl Scout Research Institute (GSRI) and learning by doing. Four activity booklets, available in English and bilingual English/Spanish, guide girls through simple, but meaningful exercises which lead them to understand and build their self-confidence. The booklets target three developmental levels: uniquely ME! The Way To Be/Nadie Como yo! Una manera de ser for 8 to 10 year-olds, uniquely ME! Inside & Out and uniquely ME! The Real Deal for 11 to 14 year-olds, and Mirror, Mirror: Discover Your Inner Beauty for 14 to 17 year-olds.
