The TPM (Tempo Para Meninas) project, an outreach of Chad Daniel Ministries, provides a dedicated space for girls, raising awareness on topics related to womanhood while distributing washable sanitary pads for girls in the most need.
Tempo Para Meninas
Gabriela Brandao, a qualified attorney (OAB/SE 10.150), who recently graduated the master’s program of Missional Leadership at the Trinity Bible College and Graduate School (North Dakota, US), oversees TPM. She is also president of the Chad Daniel Institute.
During TPM sessions, she and her team cover a range of essential topics, including:
Understanding the menstrual cycle
Self-esteem and confidence
Sexual abuse prevention
Teen pregnancy awareness
Fatherlessness
The value of women from a faith-based perspective
In a society where girls still feel ashamed to purchase or even carry sanitary pads, menstruation remains a taboo topic. Many girls go through their first period in isolation, without discussing it with family or friends.
TPM is committed to breaking this silence by fostering open conversations and empowering girls with the knowledge and resources they need.
