GIRLS INC

Program, research and training: through programming, research, and training, girls inc. Ensures that affiliates across the nation can deliver the girls inc. Experience, which consists of people, an environment, and programming that, together, empower girls to succeed. Trained staff and volunteers build lasting, mentoring relationships in girls only in spaces that are physically and emotionally safe and where girls find a sisterhood of support with shared drive, mutual respect, and high expectations. Hands-on, research-based programs provide girls with the skills and knowledge to set goals, overcome obstacles, and improve academic performance. Girls inc. Teaches healthy living so girls are able to make informed decisions, resist peer pressure, avoid risky behaviors, and take charge of their health; provides academic enrichment so girls increase their love of learning, improve performance in school, aspire to and plan for education beyond high school, and explore non-traditional careers; and helps girls build life skills to set and achieve goals and increase resilience in the face of obstacles to live productive and fulfilling lives.
