"A media environment that offers a diverse array of positive female characters will not only provide girls with role models that inspire them to reach their full potential, but it will also help boys learn to respect the girls and women they encounter in their lives."

Kudos to:

The Walt Disney Company for Hannah Montana
Thank you for putting on a clean fun show. Finally our young girls have a role model to follow that isn't headstrung on boys but instead on finding her own self. It's nice to see male sidekicks for once.

PBS / Kim Bent for Catch the Science Bug
Kudos to Kim Bent for starting Catch the Science Bug, a new TV series that features female scientists and really gets children, especially girls, excited about science, technology, and the environment.  Kim, a scientist herself, inspires children from all walks of life with this entertaining and interactive show.  She is a positive role model to thousands of girls and introduces them to the many different careers available in science. Since females are
under-represented in both media and science, Catch the Science Bug is refreshing and timely.  Kids love it and I love what it is doing for girls.  Thank you Kim!!
