????? ? ???? ????? ???? ??? ?? ?????.There's peer pressure, mean girls, queen bees, the onslaught of social media, bullying, body shaming, school stress, oh and let's not forget puberty.
Periods, body hair, mood swings. Puberty is a tricky time for any girl to navigate - the rapid rate of changes in both her body and mind can be confusing, overwhelming, and yes, even a little scary.
As if that wasn't enough to deal with, being a girl with autism or a developmental issue can make these issues even more challenging.
Which is why we created Well Girls.
???? ????? is a personal life skills program for girls aged 8-12 with an Autism Spectrum Disorder.
Created and run by an Occupational Therapist experienced in both women's health and paediatrics, Well Girls aims to equip girls with the essential knowledge and confidence they require to manage their own personal health, and unique wellbeing needs.

Female health and wellbeing is a diverse topic - there are many wellbeing considerations that are unique to females in the pre-teen age group and impact how we live our lives. In Well Girls we present this information in a developmentally appropriate manner, which supports girls with autism or developmental delay to learn at their own pace, and in their own way.
The subjects we cover include:
* menstruation and pelvic health - understanding and functionally managing periods and building good toileting and pelvic health habits for life
* body development and personal hygiene - What's happening to my body and why? How do I care for it?
* hormonal changes of puberty - and how these affect us physically and emotionally at this time of life.
The program will run with a maximum of 8 participants, and two facilitators.
The Well Girls Foundations Program is our original Well Girls program, and the best place to start for most new attendees.
