An excellent resource for body image information is Dr. Mary Jo Kane,
Director of the Center for Research on Girls & Women in Sport, University
of Minnesota. You can reach her at maryjo@tc.umn.edu or write to her at 203
Cook Hall, 1900 University Avenue SE, Minneapolis, MN 55455.
Sports and physical activity for girls helps them to build a healthy body
image and appreciate their bodies for what they can do rather for how they
look. Dr. Kane is an expert in her field and is a strong advocate for girls
and women and a powerful ally to those working on gender equity issues.

done with teen girls for a mentoring program? I welcome any and all
