Girls Unlimited

<b>Bestselling author and advocate Dr. Monique Couvson makes a compelling, passionate case for why we should invest in girls’ unlimited potential.</b> <br><br><b>“[Couvson] is a force and a light.” —Susan Burton, founder of A New Way of Life and author of </b><em><b>Becoming Ms. Burton</b><br><br></em> <p>Building on her groundbreaking research that exposed how schools systemically fail Black girls, Dr. Monique Couvson expands her lens in <em>Girls, Unlimited</em>, exploring the many ways our society overlooks the unique experiences and needs of all girls. Interweaving heartwarming and heart-wrenching stories from her own life and career with interviews with other high-profile advocates, and insightful anecdotes about the girls she’s connected with around the world, Dr. Couvson offers a wide range of recommendations for everyone from parents to policymakers.</p> <p><em>Girls, Unlimited</em> connects the dots, powerfully illustrating a critique of the many ways girls have been historically underinvested in—especially as compared to boys, and particularly when decision-makers assume investments made in women will trickle down to girls—making the case for the type of societal investment girls deserve and arguing that we all benefit when girls thrive.</p> <p>Dr. Couvson offers an optimistic, hopeful vision for a future in which girls are supported in every arena and provides readers with a practical road map for how to get there.</p>
