Our programs directly reflect the ideas and aspirations from girls, parents, teachers, and counselors to specifically deliver instruction and guidance girls might not receive in school or at home. Taught by experienced facilitators, our gender-specific programs serve the entire girl community—girls, parents, teachers, counselors—as a valuable resource for all girls-related issues.

Girls who participate in Girls Inc. programs:

• Create meaningful, supportive peer groups that encourage female solidarity
• Grow self-esteem that carries over to home, school, and the community
• Develop sound decision-making and communication skills
• Assert themselves as confident individuals throughout their lives
• Build key leadership skills and strong work ethics
