[Covington, S., Covington K. and Covington, M. (2004, rev. 2017 and 2026). Carson City, NV: Change Companies]
NEW EDITION AVAILABLE JANUARY 2027!
Voices was created to address the unique needs of adolescent girls and young women. It provides a safe and supportive space where participants can explore who they are, build on their strengths, develop healthy relationships, and embrace their journeys of self-discovery. The program is organized around four areas: self, connecting with others, healthy living, and the journey ahead.
This thoughtfully updated third edition preserves the core strengths of Voices while reflecting the realities facing girls and young women today. Participants explore identity, relationships, self-esteem, emotional well-being, and resilience through activities that foster self-awareness, healthy decision-making, and personal growth. Updated content addresses the influence of social media and incorporates current understandings of neurodiversity and gender diversity, helping to ensure that the curriculum remains relevant, inclusive, and responsive to the experiences of today’s youth.

Voices is based on the principles of gender responsivity and is grounded in theory, research, and clinical experience. The curriculum uses a strength-based approach and incorporates a variety of therapeutic approaches, including psychoeducational, cognitive-behavioral, mindfulness, body-oriented, and expressive arts.
The program can be used in various settings, including schools, juvenile justice programs, outpatient and residential substance use disorder treatment, and private practice. It is especially beneficial for girls and young women who have experienced trauma or are struggling with substance use problems.
The Facilitator’s Guide provides the background, guidance, and session materials needed to implement the program, while the Participant’s Journal offers young women opportunities for personal reflection, creative expression, and applying new concepts and skills. Together, these materials create an engaging, supportive process that helps participants recognize their strengths, build healthier connections, and find their voices.
