Abstract
The Dove Self Esteem Project: Confident Me program explores the impact of society and professional and social media influences on young people’s body image and self-esteem. Implementing the Confident Me program in classrooms and small groups helps students to become champions for themselves as they think critically about media messages, confront comparisons with others and focus on their personal strengths to build confidence for their success socially, academically, and in future endeavors.
