Our Mission
Inspiring All Girls To Be STRONG, SMART, & BOLD
To guide and nurture girls of all races and ethnicities to excel in the face of today’s challenges. We provide the opportunities, tools, and training. Girls Inc. raises the prospects of young women to become leaders, innovators, and examples for future generations.
Girls in our programs are empowered to reach their full potential and to understand their value.
What We Do
Empowering Girls to Reach Their Full Potential
Our research-based programs deliver life-changing experiences and real solutions to unique issues facing Girls today. We provide the tools to succeed in a safe, girls-only environment alongside peers who share their drive and aspirations.
Girls learn to establish goals, confront challenges, resist peer pressure, see higher education as attainable, and explore opportunities in fields including Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM). The experience equips girls to navigate gender, economic and social barriers to grow into healthy, educated, and independent adults.
Girls who stay in our programs are empowered to reach their full potential and to understand their value.
