Springboarders are GirlSpring’s teen advisory board. Springboarders are 13-18 years of age and are drawn from a variety of different schools. Springboarders serve as the editorial board for the website, helping to create content and ideas for the website, work together as a group to volunteer at community events, and help plan GirlSpring programs. Springboarders meet once a month (virtually), submit at least one article (or other type of content like poetry, artwork, quiz, etc.) per month to the website, attend GirlSpring events, and serve as GirlSpring ambassadors at their schools and in their communities.
