Our Resources…Made with Love for Our Chapters!

  • Our annual curriculum is a detailed guide containing meeting outlines, project ideas, discussion topics, and community activities for social justice. The annual curriculum will be sent as part of a welcome packet to all approved chapters of Chicas for Change. While we encourage new chapters to follow the curriculum, it is not mandatory.

  • Many schools in Massachusetts do not provide free menstrual products to their students, faculty, or staff. The lack of free products makes it difficult for many students to feel comfortable, confident, and focused at school. Chicas for Change offers a robust guide to menstrual product collection, donation, preparation, and installation in middle and high school bathrooms. We believe that menstrual products are a right and we are determined to make them available to all.

  • Inspired by “Big Sister, Little Sister” mentorship programs, Chicas for Change offers resources on how to start a mentorship program within a chapter of Chicas for Change. Offering members a mentorship program will enrich relationship building and community networking. Guides on mentorship will also be made available to approved chapters upon registration.
