PROGRESS Teaches Girls To Speak Up For Themselves

The Program for Research and Outreach on Gender Equity in Society (PROGRESS) encourages girls and young women to use their voices to advocate and speak up on behalf of themselves. On April 1, Duquesne University hosted an interactive negotiation workshop for girls 7 to 13+. PROGRESS is housed in Carnegie Mellon University's Heinz College of Information Systems and Public Policy and is based on the research of Linda Babcock, a CMU professor and head of the Department of Social and Decision Sciences.
