The Girls Inc. Experience
The Girls Inc. Experience is a full experience.
People
Caring, nurturing adults serve as formal and informal mentors to girls, encouraging them to value their whole selves, discover and develop their inherent strengths, and receive the support they need to navigate the challenges they face. With trusted adults in their corner, girls want to commit to the sustained “frequency and dosage” of programming that leads to true positive outcomes.
Environment
Girls-only, physically and emotionally safe; where there is a sisterhood of support, high expectations, and mutual respect.
Evidence-based Programming
Evidence-based, hands-on and minds-on, age-appropriate, meeting the needs of today’s girls. Trained staff, community program partners, and volunteer mentors ensure girls are exposed to new experiences, learning opportunities, and fun.
Programs
Healthy, educated, and independent women – that is our goal. Our comprehensive programs touch all aspects of our girls’ lives by offering daily healthy meals and snacks, counseling services, technology access, and safe transportation.
Advocacy & Education
Girls Inc. works with and for girls to advocate for policies to overcome the social and systemic barriers that threaten their ability to succeed.
Together, we advocate especially for the needs of girls from low-income communities and those who may face discrimination because of their gender, race, religion, ethnicity, immigration status, disability, socioeconomic status, sexual orientation and gender identity.
Events
You Have Fun. We Raise Funds. It’s Win-Win.
Throughout the year we have large and small events that support the girls, including Lunch for the Girls and Girls Nite Out. Check back often and join in on the fun!
Within about a month of attending Girls Inc., I made new friends, learned new games, and most importantly I found a safe place to be authentically myself.
