Whispers & Screams Annual Conference
Whispers & Screams are hard to hear: Creating an Audience for Girls' Voices is an annual conference sponsored by the Iowa Gender-Specific Services Task Force. Previous Whispers & Screams programs and the discussion they generated helped to define what it means to provide equal services for girls and boys "at-risk" or involved with the juvenile justice system, by recognizing that their needs are different. The conference has brought girls' voices and experiences to the forefront and disseminated information and suggestions for gender-specific programming that have been implemented across the state. In addition to basic and advanced workshops on gender-specific program planning, Whispers & Screams will continue to offer attendees specific information on female adolescent development and experiences, as well as tools for working with girls involved with or at risk for involvement with the juvenile justice system.
